Microsoft Store Electronic Download Question
So Microsoft just started offering a great deal on Windows 7. If you are an eligible University student currently taking classes, you can get Windows 7, Home Premium or Pro, x86 or x64, for $29.99. The order page is here. You can either choose the 'Electronic Download' option, or get a hard copy for $13 extra. Being pretty poor at the moment, I chose the "Electronic Download' option. Presumably, this will be available on 22 Oct when 7 is released, but I was wondering what all I am able to download. Does anybody have experience buying an OS from the Microsoft Store and downloading it? Do I just get a big .exe, or is it an ISO that I can burn, or is it an .exe that automatically makes a DVD? Thanks for the clarification.
