Looks to me like the 'not to' wins big time.

Got to agree with Fred on this one. The (purposeful?) dilemma of announcing Windows betas is that they freeze purchases. If you're running XP, there's no reason to bother with Vista. Just wait until Win7 arrives, and skip the upgrade or free upgrade step altogether.
