Windows 7 marks the first time I have ever installed an OS without having to install ANYTHING else. Win7 loaded everything for me, all the drivers were installed. Not only that, but upon my first bootup, before I did anything, Windows notified me that it had downloaded and installed updated drivers for my video card!
I did have to install an antivirus, but that's to be expected for any OS. But Windows took me to a nice website that listed a couple dozen different Antivirus software to let me choose from. I always choose AVG, so I clicked on that. Unfortunately, the website that it brought me too was not the free version, but I don't think that's Windows fault.
After Antivirus install and UAT disable, it was ready. A mere 20 minutes for complete installation. I like this.

Question: I bought a Dell with Vista that said it would provide a free Windows 7 upgrade. Any idea how to go about getting this? I sort of figured my computer would take care of it by itself, but so far, nothing.
