Where can I download a copy of Vista ?

[stevewestern]

I have a laptop with a Vista license code and need to do a clean install so want to download a copy of Vista, but where from ?
I don't think it is worth buying a copy of W7 and know nothing about linux - is that much the same as a windows OS ?

Thanks for any help !

OEM from Acer.

Thanks for the link and help Neil - I'll see if I can make sense of it (these things so often go way above my head!)
