    I received Win7 family pack on 10/02/09


    Am I the only one to get it early? My Family pack upgrade Home edition came a week ago. I installed it on top of WinXP Pro, I had pre ordered back in august. I meant to install it on the Win 7evaluation but confused the partitions so now WinXP is gone, luckily the win7 Home edition installation saved all my stuff in a folder called windows old. Got all my pictures and music back. I was even able to drag some of my programms from this folder. My anti virus from ATT DSL does not recognize win7 and also the ATT self diagnose tool. AVG anti Virus works great with Win7.
    I have to install it on my wife and son's pc, the package comes with two disks one 32 bit version and one 64 bit. 3 installations for $149, you can't beat that.
    Just wanted to let you know. Win7 home edition works fine on my PC.

    Two possibilities:
    Shipping is complete. Disregard email.

    Shipment pending. Six licenses for $149.

    Stranger things have happened.
