Shamelessly gripped from BPH789's post on Fatwallet. :thumbsup: :cool:

If you're in the market for a new PC, you may want to wait until June 26. "Information Week" reports that Microsoft will allow free upgrades to Win 7 for PC's purchased with Vista Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate between June 26 to October 22. The offer does not apply to PC's with Vista Basic.

Vista-To-Windows 7 Free Upgrades Start June 26

Consumers who buy a Vista PC prior to Oct. 22 get Windows 7 gratis, internal memo states.

Consumers who purchase a Vista-based computer on or after June 26 will be allowed to upgrade to Windows 7 for free, according to a leaked corporate memo from electronics retailer Best Buy (NYSE: BBY).

The memo states that Best Buy (and presumably its competitors) will launch a "Technology Guarantee" program on June 26, under which anyone who purchases a PC running Vista Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate can install Windows 7 at no extra charge when the latter becomes available Oct. 22.
