Ballmer Signs Windows 7 Signature Edition, Sorta

By - Source: Tom's Hardware US

And you thought only your drivers had to be signed.

Just over a month ago, Microsoft announced that it was teaming up with House Party to help people around the world throw Windows 7-themed parties the week following the launch of the new OS.

Those selected to hold Windows 7 parties can upload photos and videos, chat with other hosts and blog. The real incentive for the host to throw one of these parties is the free special Signature Edition of Windows 7 Ultimate and a Windows 7 Party Pack.

At the time we didn't know much about what "Signature Edition" meant, but now we know thanks to reports on the internet from those who have received their party packs.

Essentially, it's a promotional copy of Windows 7 Ultimate that comes in a special box adorned with a printed reproduction of Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer's John Hancock. Check out the photos from StuffiWrote for more.

    Tell me again why Steve Balmer's signature is so "valuable"?

    manjyomethunderDo you have ANY idea how many of these there are, and how long it'd take to sign each one? We'd have them by the time Windows 8 released.


    I don't know! Have you seen Ballmer do a presentation? I'm sure he's got some performance enhancing substance… He could sign like 10 million of them in like three seconds!

    Throw your regular paty, get pissed/drunk, stoned etc, and all you have to do is have a few Win 7 pictures here and there. Who doesnt like to party? LOL, not like you'd have to tell the guests the reason beind it, just have a normal party as you would do on a bday/special occasion.

    Heck, gatecrash someone elses party with a few Win 7 stuff, stand with the crowd in the background, face cam, smile and you just threw a party for win 7.

    Ebay is a laoda bs when it comes to legit and copy material. Win 7 is 1 DVD with the choice to install 64 or 32 at installation setup stage, prior to formatting.
