    1. The recovery partition shouldn't be deleted, but you should still burn your Vista recovery DVDs using eRecovery before making the move to Windows 7.
    I wouldn't know for certain, as I didn't use Acer's upgrade kit.

    2. I think Jayayess1190's point is that the free offer has ended.

    ?? It is mailed to you. You get two discs, one with Windows 7 and a driver disc.
