You DARE to come to me for an upgrade, do you, little HP 17? Entertainment Laptop PC w/ Dual-Core and BluRay? You refurbished, crashing, clattering collection of collagenous junk! Buggy? You are talking to an operating system who has laughed in the face of the blue screen of death, sneered at forced restarts and chuckled at catastrophic data loss. You should consider yourself lucky that I?m granting you an upgrade now instead of 20 years from now!
Why, anybody can have a neat computer. That?s a very mediocre commodity. Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the Earth or slinks through slimy seas has one. Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning where computers go to be great thinking machines. They have one thing you haven?t got: a functioning OS. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committartum E Microsoftus, I hereby confer upon you a free upgrade to Windows 7.
And now, I must leave you! I must travel far, far away to confer, converse, and otherwise hob-nob with my brother Vistas. I can?t come back! I don?t know how I work and I?d most likely crash. Goodbye, folks!
Warranty: 90 Day HP
