Default Re: Possible to ovewrite ubuntu with vista,
You would have to buy Vista. You would have to decide which version of Vista you want. There is Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate.

Home Basic: 89.99
Home Premium: 109.99
Business: 139.99
Ultimate: 179.99

Then you will have reformat the hard drive and probably repartition it. (I'm not a linux expert so I'm not sure what type of partition it is) The reformat and installation of Windows isn't all that hard and I can find a guide on how to do it once you decide.

Regards,
Adam
