On a similar note, I should be recieving my free copy of Windows 7 x32 AND x64 Signature edition in the mail soon since I was selected to be a host for The Windows 7 Launch Party!!

Me too!!! Looking forward to it even though I have it already from Technet. I must be crazy. :sarc:

How much you think i can sell it on ebay for? lmao I'd shoot for $500

Depends on what, really the special "signature edition" actually is. Depending on that, I suppose it might hold some interest to collectors of technorabilia (I don't know if that's a word, I just made it up).

If it's signed by Gates or Balmer does that really add value? I suppose the software is probably the same. At most, I would think it might have an extra theme or wallpaper in there.

Hi harpua, Every time I come up with a word like yours, I say the same thing in all good faith, thinking that I just made the word up, and then lo and behold, if some git doesn't come along in the next instance and ruin it all on me.

That's alright, I wasn't really trying to assert credit for it or anything; just covering my a** in case the word didn't yet exist.

 

[Criminal Fetus]

lol I'm sure there's no significance except like you said, a wallpaper or two. hopefully there's a wallpaper of bill gates so i can shoot some sticky darts at my screen lmao

What's with my SIGPIC not showing????

Don't think that's really the spirit of the thing is it?

Why not do a webcast of your 7 party and auction it.

MS will love that.

No sig links until you gain some stature. Upload the pic here, then attach it to sig.

God, I wish I had received a chance to host a party. Ah well, guess I am not as lucky as all the guys on here! My brother has a MSDN account, maybe I will be able to get it cheaper at $29 or whatever the student deal is. I just graduated in the Spring, not fair that Windows 7 has to come out in the following fall!!

Chuckle. Sometimes, I open a handful of, or a dozen, threads and then get caught up in a complex solution. By the time I get around to the end, I have missed all the action. And updates.

It's not that I am slow. I am just not very fast.

I believe it's supposed to be in a box with Bill's "digital signature" -- basically his embossed signature on the box. Software should be identical, but I believe it's supposed to be some form of "limited edition" thing due to the packaging.

Hey guys... i think this signature edition will be delivered in a Box...

Wen some of you guys receive this i would like to see it... please take some pics

 

[toughbook]

Could you please enlighten us dummies on how, or why you recieved yours before the RTP date? No jealousy here, have had mine for awhile. Just curious on why they are sending these out early.

 

[Criminal Fetus]
