Sweet Deal on Windows Vista

I was recently sent an email that outlined a sweet deal on Windows Vista. Basically, buy one retail copy of Windows Vista Ultimate (full product or upgrade) and you can purchase up to two copies of Windows Vista Home Premium upgrade for $59.99 each. Since all Vista SKUs are shipped on the DVD, you can use the Ultimate DVD and the Home Premium keys you get to upgrade to Windows Vista on two more machines!! Here are the full details on the offer:

We want to offer special customers a great limited-time discount to help them share the excitement of the Windows Vista™ operating system with their family! Now the whole family can enjoy the automated security features, improved performance and advanced entertainment capabilities of Windows Vista on PCs throughout your home. Here’s how it works
