Windows Vista

[Matt_Roche]

Ok, I bought a new Sony Vaio laptop a week ago. The guy in the shop told me I would get a free upgrade to windows Vista, and there should be something in the box to tell me how to obtain it. Well, there's nothing in the box and after checking the windows website I can't see anything about getting a free upgrade.

Should I have it free as it's a Vista ready laptop? Or have I been lied to? Because if I wasn't going to get vista free, I would've waited an extra month or 2 until laptops actually came standard with it.

A quick reply would be greatly appreciated so I can take it up with the Sony Centre I bought it from, thanks

Hi matt,

Have you had a look at this site ..?

Thanks for the link, that's what I need to get it! However.........

I filled it all in, then got to what seemed to be the last page, clicked next and it said 'An unrecoverable error has occured, please try again later. '
