    This says that I am eligble for a free vista upgrade. I purchased my T60 last night! One of the conditions as mentioned above is that I have a vista compatible sticker on my laptop. Well, I don't! What does that mean? No upgrade for me? Why?

    BTW, is this upgrade downloadable or do I have to wait for CDs?

    If you are eligible for the upgrade, then I wouldn't worry about the sticker. It saves them 0.00001 cents to not put one. Just go ahead and redeem your free upgrade.

    It worked for me, but I also had to e-mail in a copy of my computer receipt.

    150 SEK (~ $20) for vista is really a sweet deal, even if it turns out I dislike it :)
