Has anyone preorder Windows Vista yet? I'm having a hard time finding online stores that are offering preorder for vista. The only one I have found so far is amazon.com I checked newegg.com and at the moment they are offering those trade in coupons with windows xp.

Why pre order? It's a CD, they stamp out a couple thousand every second. Also, it's a Microsoft product, it's going to need several updates before it works at all. Don't be in a hurry.

Agreed. I don't know why you would preorder software. I've never had a problem buying software the day it comes out off the store shelves
