Are you so excited about the upcoming WINDOWS 7 launch that you just can't stop telling all your friends about how super awesome it is? I bet you're so jazzed that you'd even pay double what they're asking for Windows 7 Ultimate. That's pretty jazzed.
Well, buddy, Microsoft has some amazing news for you! Hold on to your boxers. If you can find 9 chumps friends and provide a decent pitch, you could be chosen to host a Windows 7 House Party and win a free signature copy of Windows 7 (Kid n Play not included).
There are four pre-defined categories for the party: PhotoPalooza, Media Mania, Setting up with Ease, and Family Friendly Fun. Riveting stuff, to be sure. Nothing says "party" like showing people how to do a Windows 7 install from scratch or editing photos using Paint.

So, no, technically you can't throw a LAN party and FPS all night long with your pals. I'd wager my "Windows 7 Libraries and your porn collection" idea wouldn't go over so well either.
Also, be aware that the application page contains a warning for us outlanders: "Most events are limited to the United States." That line totally crushed my dreams of receiving a party pack. I was really hoping to get some "Pumped Steve Ballmer" napkins.
What if you're dead-set on throwing one of these epic bashes, but you're not the best organizer of social events? No problem.
Microsoft has generously built a store into the House Party web site where you can pick up uber-useful things like a book of hot dog recipes and plastic dinner plates which resemble Don Ho's shirt collection. Win!
