If AMD comes out with their EPP this year I will post the specifics here. Their last one was 2 years ago it was a AMD Athlon64 3200+ with a Asus K8V SE Deluxe and Windows XP Pro for $200.00. I am still using this setup now.

I have emailed Retailedge with your question with how they would be able to include Vista with the bundle. I will post back here with what their answer.

Even if you work part time with a registered Retail store, you are still able to get the EPPs. The site is being updated right now so I will post the Retail Store list when I can log back in.

I got a email from Intel RetailEdge:

Hello Stephen,

Thank you for contacting the Intel(R) Retail Edge Program Team.

The Windows* Vista* Ultimate disc may not be available when you purchase your
bundle.  However, every Program member who purchases a bundle will received a
full copy of Windows Vista* Ultimate when it launches in 2007.  Â

We are currently working on an interim solution regarding the Operating System
that will be shipped with the bundle.  Further information should be available
soon in the Purchase Program and FAQs area of the site.


Regards,

Bo S.
