Regardless of what you'll be told, it can do a "Clean Install" without XP being on the machine. Cheaper still, buy an OEM package. How satisfied are you with this reply?

This is actually pretty funny given that where I am living — at regional city with a population of about 60, — has probably managed to beat this, albeit it would have taken four weeks but still. Yeah, right. Talk about inflated statistics! I bet that of those were purchased by Microsoft to puff up the numbers. I also live in Asia and have found that most major software available on the net cannot be purchased over the net and thus I went in search of buying the software through a distributor.
What I found shocked me. It is really hard to find a valid copy of anything. And for someone like me that wants to stay within compliance and not be a Pirate, it is becoming very difficult to stay current.
Another thought was to buy the software in the USA through a distributor and have it shipped to me though the Postal system. Wrong again as there are high import duties in place to prevent this. Sometimes it seems that they want us to use copies. This is capitalism at its finest. Given the almost zero practical advantages or improvements over windows XP other than being chock full of DRM and eye candy, this is a very sensible decision by customers.
What do Microsoft expect? They only have themselves to blame and I feel no sympathy. This is ridiculous. Come on….. Why even bother…The Chinese government probably uses some flavor of X.
Piracy is a problem, but hardware requirement is a problem too. People still want to use new os with their old computers. Another factor will be most of the softwares and hardwares still not fully support vista yet. So why not wait til later when everything is fully compatible. There is absolutely no way there could have been sold just copies.
If there was no piracy how could have MS survived? Windows is the most used software only because of it. And you know who would care about MS if their software is not the most used Ulimate Pofessional crap on the planet. And for you who want to stay legal — just upgrade to Linux. What Microsoft should do is to reduce the ridiculous-high price!! Not to be rude. Most of the people commenting here seem to fail to realise that the pictures are of FAKE copies of Vista.
Hence the typo. Think about that in terms of your own country.. The cost of the software in china has to reflect its export value regardless of national average income; otherwise people would export legal copies to western countries at a fraction of their domestic retail. Why would MS even package Vista in slim cheap cd cases. Well dur!! What do you think is the point of this discussion is!! Your shocked by this?? Chinese wont pay for anything they are plain used to just stealling stuff….
They have morals of any kind when it comes to stealling USA products or goods. Generally, a download manager enables downloading of large files or multiples files in one session.
