Students: Buy a Windows 7 PC, Get an Xbox 360 Free

Posted on Thursday, May 19 @ 11:26:50 Eastern by

Oh man. College. Shit. Tough decisions. Do I take Woody and get called a gay cowboy or do I take Buzz and get called space homo? Dammit. What the hell do I do? I'm a student, I just bought a Windows 7 PC and now I need to know what I'm going to play with when I'm not studying at school.

Andy, you idiot, take the free Xbox 360 you just got!

That's right, if you're a student and you buy a Windows 7 PC starting May 22nd, you'll walk away with a free Xbox 360 with 4 GB storage. Yes, that's the retarded cousin from the same family tree as the "Arcade" Xbox 360, but you can't beat free.

You'll get a free 360 when you pay $699 or more for a Windows 7 PC. General Marketing Manager for Windows Kathleen Hall said:

A hot new Windows 7-based PC with a free Xbox 360 is the ultimate productivity, social and entertainment package for students. In one shot, with this great offer, Microsoft is given students everything they need for a successful new school year.

This may be coincidental but when I got an Xbox 360 my grades started slipping, I started missing more classes, and I had a terrible sleep schedule. Just sayin'....

    A 4GB hard drive can be easily (and fairly cheaply) swapped for a bigger one, that's a crazy good deal. Too bad I'm broke, I'd love a nice PC and 360 so I can play games like The Witcher and Forza. Thanks to Halo 2 and Guitar Hero my freshman year roommate/current best friend and I made a lot of friends in our dorm, people were always over to play.
