    I've finally decided to buy the 6214.

    However I have been told by NuSystems that they are not participating in the Vista Upgrade programme. Can the Zepto reps confirm this.

    I was told they were doing it, and if they arnt, then they owe me on free Retail copy of Vista when it comes out, because I queried them twice by email to make sure.

    If Zepto is participating in the Vista upgrade, what is the date limit for the buyers to be able to benefit from this programme?

    Down the bottom left handside under the information heading, you will see Vista upgrade info.

    Direct Link here.

    Confirmed they are doing it.

    Thanks Starbuck.

    Don't know how long that has been there. I called them sometime last week and the guy said not at the moment but maybe nearer the time of vista's release.

    Maybe he was new!

    Will be putting my order in tomorrow.

    I believe nusystems (Zepto UK) are only agents for Zepto denmark and most questions you ask them, they ask headquarters. It's not their fault if they arn't well informed tbh.

    So if I read the zepto page correctly, as long as you bought a zepto with a preinstalled OS you can upgrade it to Vista using their services...

    I guess my next question is : what are the upgrade prices if, like me, you bought preinstalled XP Home and there for have to pay an upgrade fee?
