I'm guessing that's in the US, but out before christmas is good. Means I will have plenty of time to upgrade my RC1 before the timeout kicks in.

MF is always on top of it! lol

I wonder if they will offer free upgrades to those who are just getting Vista now?

Im getting a new laptop shortly with Vista Ultimate.

If not a free upgrade, at least some kind of discount/rebate?

/me is an idiot.

Might help if I read the damn article before posting stupid questions :)
although, i'll be left out of the free upgrade progam, assuming predictions are correct :(

A recent NZ Technet email I received stated general reease in NZ on the 23rd.

Hopefully it will be available on Technet in the second half of July as some people have posted around the web. Vista was available to Technet & MSDN in November 06 and retailed in January 07 so I would assume Technet & MSDN sub holders will be able to get it early again. hmmm I love Technet.

cheers
