How to get Windows 7 for Free

Hi all,

Q. My school has a program called MSDNAA and I've heard I can get software there for no cost. Is that true?

A. Yes. MSDNAA is a global academic program designed specifically for academic labs, faculty, and students studying in areas of computer science, engineering, and information systems. If a department you are taking classes in is a part of this program, you could get Windows 7 at no cost.

Go to the MSDN Academic Alliance search to search for your school.

If you’re enrolled in a college or university, even taking a single course at your local community college, you can get Windows 7 Home Premium or Professional for $30. Students in technical or design majors can get Windows 7 (and many other Microsoft programs) for free if their university or college is signed up for the right programs.
