The only way to officially get W7 legally is if you are with a company that does volume business with Microsoft and have MVLS access. They released the downloads for large companies to begin testing and companies like Dell to start installing it on hardware.
Retail wise you can't get it until October.
Other than cracked versions on torrent sites, regular peeps just have access to the beta which I think is still free.
I would say definitely get it over Vista. Vista was much improved with SP1 and SP2 but W7 is even better. Less of a resource hog and more features built right in. Definitely solid launch potential.
