Don't rush to by Windows 7 Home Edition, you can also get Windows 7 Professional for the same price ($30). Once you validate your school email, click the link that says "Need to join your schools network domain?"

If anyone without a .edu email address is looking for a copy, post here and maybe someone has more than one.

Thanks for pointing this one out fomenta [I typed formenta because I can't read. Clearly there's no "r" in his name, but I'm too dumb to realize that. Please stab me in the face. Also, I just got owned by a wordfilter.], I've been tormenting over having to spend cash on Professional cause I know Home Premium isn't going to cut for me. Thanks again fomenta [I typed formenta because I can't read. Clearly there's no "r" in his name, but I'm too dumb to realize that. Please stab me in the face. Also, I just got owned by a wordfilter.], you just saved me alot of cash in turn that is alot of F*CKING ramen you have saved me.

Wait a sec
for those of you in college check with your tech departments before you pay the $30.

for example, my school (University of Arkansas) has a partnership with Microsoft and all the students can get it for FREE!!!

i installed it this past weekend and didn't have to pay a dime because it fell under part of my "student fees" i paid at the beginning of the semester along with my tuition

Free for me thanks to the msdnaa program at my college :) It's still an awesome deal for $30.

Yeah, I got it for free as well since I'm a CSE major at my school. I may pick up a $30 copy as according to the FAQ it's a retail copy (ie not like the one I have now where it's one install, period...).
