Weird question.

[MBrown]

I preorderd W7 back with it was $50 but I got the download version. Is it possible for Microsoft to actually give me a boxed version if I show them my reciept of my original purchase?

Not for free. Wait until SP1 is released and you might be able to get in on the media replacement program that was offered for Vista.
