Puget Systems Announces Free Windows 7 Upgrade Program

SEATTLE, WA, Mar 03 (MARKET WIRE) --
Puget Systems (www.pugetsystems.com), a boutique integrator of custom PC
systems for enthusiasts, gamers, consumers and SMB markets, today
announced a program to provide free upgrades to Windows 7. Effective
immediately, Puget Systems customers who purchase a qualifying desktop
computer equipped with the 64-bit edition of Windows Vista Ultimate or
Home Premium will be eligible for a free upgrade to the 64-bit version of
Windows 7 Ultimate upon its availability from Microsoft.

With this aggressive program, Puget Systems is offering customers valuable
incentive to partner with the industry's most reliable builder of high
quality, high performance computers to ensure trouble-free, seamless
upgrades to Windows 7.

"The Puget Systems Free Windows 7 Upgrade program is perhaps one of the
most aggressive promotions we've launched in our history, " said Jon Bach,
president of Puget Systems. "This is an interesting time in the industry;
an economic downturn coupled with an inactive period in the technology
development cycle has resulted in a quiet, uninteresting market. Consumers
are taking a wait and see approach to buying new systems. We aim to fill
the vacuum with a valuable incentive for customers to give Puget Systems a
closer look and provide them an opportunity to partner with a high end
systems builder who will go the extra mile with unparalleled service and
attentiveness."

Free Windows 7 Upgrade Program: The Details

Customers who purchase a full personal computer system with a minimum cost
of $1,000 qualify for the free Windows 7 upgrade, upon its availability
from Microsoft.

To take advantage of the free upgrade offer, customers must follow
specific guidelines outlined by the company:

-- To be eligible for this upgrade, customers must ask Puget Systems
representatives to update their quotes to reflect this offer before placing
their order;
-- Puget Systems will begin accepting machines for upgrade within 30 days
after the launch of Windows 7;
-- Customers will be responsible for any shipping costs to and from Puget
Systems;
-- Due to anticipated volume, Puget Systems will only be upgrading a
limited number of machines per week on a first come, first served basis;
-- Puget Systems will perform a fresh Windows 7 installation, therefore
completely erasing customers' hard drives. Data backup prior to sending
system back to Puget Systems for upgrade is highly recommended.

This upgrade offer is scheduled to expire on June 15, 2009, however
the Company reserves the right to change this date at any time. This
upgrade is being completed at the sole cost of Puget Systems and with no
partnership from Microsoft.

After installing Windows 7, Puget Systems will complete its full testing
and benchmarking process, to ensure the system is problem free and is
performing as expected.
