My first contact with the Windows Vista Package

Although I've installed the Vista Beta on my first day at Microsoft and upgraded it continuously up to RTM, it took me until today (the official start of Vista sale) to get a real package into my hands! (the bad news.. it doesn't belong to me..)

Here it is...

Today I was sitting in our local cafeteria, when the local Vista BG-lead passed by heading to ITnT exhibition with some "real-world" Vista packages.

I just had the time to play around a little bit with the package and make some fotos. I think it looks really cool, but it's not that easy to open it, if you don't know how.. maybe some kind of theft protection :-)

Then the packages was gone again.. leaving me with the unspectacular green MSDN subscription version of Vista I have.. :-(
