    for those of you who dont have a free upgrade from asus or anything like that, or are like me and have a second pc you want 7 on, and are a student, you can get windows 7 for 30 bucks

    If you check the box that says you need to join a domain, you will get Pro instead of Home Premium, so you can run XP mode.
