Is window 7 free to download?

Answer 1

No. It does cost to upgrade from either. Prices are currently expensive (depending on where you live too) but are expected to drop significantly in the next few months.

Hope this helps :D

Answer 2

"Most computer manufacturers are offering free upgrades for anyone that bought a computer after June 26, 2009. Proof of purchase is required from some of these manufacturers. Also, you may be required to pay for shipping and handling."

Answer 3

It is totally worth upgrading to Windows 7. Windows 7 is much faster than Windows Vista, because of some memory management and service issues in Windows Vista. I think Windows 7 is easier to use because of the interface. However some might disagree, because some people are used to Windows XP and Windows Vista has kept that interface. Windows 7 does have some features like Aero Peek or Aero Snap or Aero Shake, which helps the user to be quick. Windows 7 also has the same system requirements as Windows Vista. So if your computer is running Windows Vista, it has a high chance that it is compatible with Windows 7.

Overall, I think it is totally worth it upgrading to Windows 7. It seems much simpler and easier to use, and also faster. I had a terrible experience in Windows Vista and sometimes even wondered why Microsoft created that operating system. Even Windows XP was faster.

Answer 4

No it isn't, you have to buy it or be given a valid product key and installation disc or else it's piracy.

Never trust "free" with Windows operating systems

Answer 5

Yes -- Windows 7 provides faster and more stable performance in addition to multiple behind-the-scenes improvements in networking and security.
