How can I get Vista?

VetteGuy31189 · 04-09-2008, 04:51 PM

I have a labtop and when I bought it like about a year ago, vista just came out after I bought my labtop

And now that I am in college, the whole campus uses Vista! and I have the old windows on my labtop and my desktop. Any easy way to get Vista? anyone have a copy they could maybe send me? I really need it for school. thanks

You have to buy it, it's not free. Are you even sure your laptop will run it?

There's a link on this page to the upgrade advisor which should tell you whether you will be able to run Vista or not:
