We will never know the agreement between HP and Microsoft.
My thinking is HP is in the business of selling computers not operating systems.
They are pushing Windows 7 because it sells more computers.

Re Windows 7 Driver:
If you install Windows 7 doesn't MS still provide a comprehensive automatic driver download?
If this support hasn't ended, when will it end?
The IT guy at work just ordered a bunch of HP's with Windows 7. So is this just for the corporate environment or consumers also?

Windows 7 is going to be around for a long time. Thank God.
Basic drivers are not as good as dedicated drivers from the manufacturer. Most companies are starting to provide them now for windows 7 since a lot of people are filling up there phones with angry questions on how to even do something on windows 8.
I have a lot of friends in retail and they state that in my state, almost every windows 8 PC they sell gets returned, because they get frustrated trying to use it.
Certainly I won't let MS auto install drivers during a routine Windows update without asking me. In particular, I would always take control of graphics from Nvidia or whoever the manufacturer may be.
