    I'll get my daughter to get me a copy.

    to be honest, I have decided to actually pay for this o/s for my office computer.....

    It's only $200 odd dollars to upgrade from my legit vista key which came with my dell pc....

    I must be getting old....

    Yep I love Windows 7

    and i did pay for Vista! Bought it in Dick Smith - the kid behind the counter walked out back and handed me an Academic Edition, so thankfully I didn't pay much!

    If its via the "it's not cheating" program, then 1 copy per student (but staff can get it as well).
