Windows Feedback Program participants can get Windows 7 gift

Are you looking to get a copy of Windows 7 when it's released sometime later this year? Well it looks like Microsoft is giving out a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate to participants of the Windows Feedback Program who meet certain criteria according to an e-mail shown in the screenshot below:



To those who are wondering what the e-mail says:

To encourage your continued participation in the Windows Feedback Program using Windows 7 RC, we will send you a copy of the commercially released version of Windows 7 Ultimate as a gift within 3 months of its general availability in the US provided that:

1. You are a US resident of age 18 or older;
2. You signed up for the Windows Feedback Program through the Windows 7 beta Community Preview Program; and
3. You have sent data using the Windows Feedback Program automated instrumentation software from Windows 7 RC for at least 4 months.

We would appreciate it if you continue your participation in the Windows Feedback Program after receipt of the gift and send us data using the automated instrumentation software on the commercially released version of Windows 7. However, it is not a condition of the gift. We may offer more incentives if you do.

Thank You
The Windows Experience Team

If you don't fit the criteria, don't sweat, there's still some others ways you may be able to get Windows 7 legally at a discount or even for free.
