I don't have an .edu e-mail but am a college student so I showed them proof of my enrollment and received and eligibility e-mail allowing me access to the store. I never had to make a phone call. What happened was they sent me the wrong link to get Office only and I e-mailed them back about that and received a link to order various software including Windows and Office. They only seemed to have Windows 7 Professional Upgrade so I went with that and successfully got a key and link to download the software.
I gotta say Windows 7 is pretty sweet so far and I've barely used it yet. It boots up real quick and looks and feels very nice. Of course gaming is also a bit smoother compared to Vista. I've already installed virtual machine and XP mode but haven't tried it out yet.
