    Hmm, so I guess buying Windows Media Edition when I custom build my desktop in about a month would be worth the extra $20 over Window's Home Edition, for the free upgrade and all.

    Sweet.

    Newegg sent me a e-mail saying ....if you buy XP SP2b then they will throw in Vista RC1 for free.

    RC1 would be a rip-off ..... RC2 would probally be a sweet deal for some at least until next May when it expires.

    Everybody will be offering Upgrade Express soon.
