Microsoft and Windows 7 have asked people around the Globe to throw their own version of a House Party. They started last night, October 8th, and I hit one thrown by my colleague, Dana Manciagli at the Parlor Live Comedy Club. She not only was there to celebrate and show off Windows 7 but she partnered the event with a really cool program called Junior Achievement as part of the Microsoft Giving Campaign. Here's a quick look at one of the MANY Launch parties being thrown around the world.

Does Microsoft have a "party kit"? I'm going to throw a launch party! I convinced the wifey to let me do it I want to have cool stuff to give away as door prizes, posters to put up, t-shirts Where can I get a party kit or schwag kit? I'll get the wife to make little C9 guy cup cakes or something, and put Win7 media center up on my flat screen in the family room and run C9 videos I'll put out some of my UMPCs and gadgets and load Win7 on them for people to play with. I need an idea for the "Win 7 drink" though... when I was at MIX06, they had a special drink at the party at Tao, I need one for Windows 7!
