How did it go? Did people crowd around a notebook running Windows 7 and start acting like stereotypical homebodies?

It was actually pretty decent - but small scale. I'll upload some pics after work.
I don't mind my free copy of Windows 7 Ultimate (32- AND 64-bit versions) or the Windows t-shirt. Which I had to wear at work yesterday to scare people.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

There. I think that the local event could have been perhaps a bit smaller than the one in Redmond
And I got something to wear for Halloween too.

Yes, I would never wear that shirt. Although Windows 7 is the first Microsoft OS I've ever liked (after using Vista for a year).
