I know quite a few people who have avoided purchasing a much needed laptop because of the over hyped failures of the Windows Vista operating system. I say over hyped because in my humble opinion they have been just that. I know quite well that upon initial release two years ago that the Vista OS was squeezed on to architecture by manufacturers that was not equipped to handle it. However this really has not been the case for over a year now, and Microsoft has subsequently released two Vista OS service packs to clean up the threads they left hanging in the first version.

Well now this is neither here nor there, the release date for Windows 7 is just around the corner in later October! I have been using it myself, finding an advance copy, for about a month now. I really like it. In fact since I installed Windows 7 there is absolutely no such thing as Apple OS X envy in my life, Ha Ha!

Now I know many of you that have been milking the last life out of an old machine, can’t wait until next month so you can purchase a new machine with Microsoft’s shiny new OS installed. You may find this a little hard to believe, but it may not behoove you to wait. The reason being that we have many Dell coupons offering fantastic savings, but expire on October 1. Several of these machines while they will ship with Vista, are eligible for a free Windows 7 upgrade as soon as it is released!

Take the Dell Studio 15 for example. This multimedia platform is Dell’s most popular laptop, and until October 1 you can find the Studio 15 fully loaded for a mere $699! The Studio 15 can be purchased in seven different colors, and comes outfitted with a 2.0 GHZ Intel Pentium Dual Core T4200 processor, 4 GB of RAM, a 15.6″ HD display with a camera, and a 500 GB hard drive!
