I was going to order this with my .edu email address until I saw that it was the upgrade version.
Can someone verify to me that you can do a fresh install with this copy instead of just an upgrade?

Yes you can, that's what I did.

DL the file, extract it (creates an extraction folder on its own), create an .iso file from that folder, burn to disk.

Boot off disk, and format your HDD of choice, and away you go. I'm in the process of copying my old data onto my new PC, then gotta reinstall all my programs (I f'in hate that part), but I'm really diggin the new looks of Win7.

Really, the DL versions of Win7 are meant for peeps w/o an optical drive (netbook), but it is still possible to create a bootable copy from the files.

I'm barely scratching the surface of what i could be doing with the enterprise version of it. But i just havnt had the time to do more with it.

just got it installed and i can already notice a difference over vista. i did a clean install and it worked perfectly. with vista, my wireless didnt work and my computer took about 3-4 times to boot correctly and it was slow as shit. problems are fixed now with windows 7.

i was running a hacked version of vista so that could have contributed to the problems i was having

only had 1 driver issue its for an older netgear wireless adapter.
