mac_shinobi Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Yeah, I did that with some mates at new year... living room was full of computers Good, Good !!

soveryapt Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Lets be honest, it's really a "Vista is dead" party! THE HORRIBLY BUGGY O/S IS DEAD .. LONG LIVE THE HORRIBLY BUGGY O/S .. or Microsoft Windows is Dead .. Long Live Microsoft Windows .. And all those other plays on the king is dead long live the king etc etc ..
synaesthesia Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Dont you have to provide pictures of the procedings afterwards? Because of that I wondered if I could change clothes a few times, use a selection of funny hats and moustaches and blag it
azrael78 Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 So - for a Windows 7 party, you get a free copy of Windows 7 Ultimate and some other bits and pieces... Imagine what would happen if you had a 'British Gas' party... Free gas cylinders? At least the BBQ would be cheap as it'd be gas powered and you'd have a reason to be glad about smelling gas - as opposed to mild panic. Az
john Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Hmm Windows 7 launch party at the College sounds good The students would love it I'm sure, how quick can I roll 7 out to 220 PCs I wonder.....
featured_spectre Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 surprisingly fast, sysprep seems to love windows 7, you can have 30 machines done with sysprep in around 20 mins (thats how long it took me to image our suite!)
gshaw Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 IIRC WDS is multicast now (or is it just SCCM?) so imaging should be super quick now That's one reason to upgrade to SCCM over my trusty SMS 2003 install, send 1 image rather than 30 odd copies of it
webman Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Is yours going to be like this? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cX4t5-YpHQ]YouTube - HostingYourParty[/ame]
gshaw Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Lolol only got 3 mins in but couldn't go further than "so I just played a few of the Windows 7 orientation videos..." If you can get away with 4 people, 1 photo for a free copy of 7 Ultimate it's worth doing though!
Batman Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Judging from that video, I wouldn't be surprised if the party ends up a bit like this: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_puc8ojNctA&feature=related]YouTube - Donnie Darko Lifeline Discussion[/ame]
featured_spectre Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Our headteacher took to inviting all the headteachers in the county and got me to invite around 40 technicians or so from our county! If anyone in the Beds, Bucks, Herts, Cambridgeshire or Northamptionshire area wants to come, PM me your email and I will ping an invite out too you!
