Best part about buying a new PC is when the guy asks you. So do you want
Windows Vista or Windows 7 and you tell him what you are about to do and
he gives you this weird look, like your'e from outer space or something.
I also get a lot of pleasure erasing brand new Microsoft installations
and then turning on compiz and having people's jaws drop in amazement.
Good luck
