never been happy with doing an os upgrade.best to always go with clean install.that is
why upgrade copies are vastly cheaper. always best to install the full version.
be
patient and wait for the bios crack or similar crack. i'm sure somebody is already
working on it....aren't you???? let us know (wink,wink)
with high prices like these, they encourage increased piracy of their windows product.
charging $400 for ultimate licenses is insanity when compared with osx at $150 and linux
for free. it's time for microsoft to get off their high horse and start taking some
losses like the rest of us. does microsoft assume that piracy will decrease? windows 7
will be the most pirated version of windows in history......
thanks go out to the reply from the cat!!!! i completely agree. that is one of the
reasons i have been trying several distros of linux...free!!!! microsoft needs to realize
why their "monopoly" os's keeps getting pirated is they are ...too damn expensive !!!!!
imagine the profits and stock value of microsoft if they sold only one version of any
operating system for a flat price of ...say...under $100.00 !!!! i would pay that price
for w7....but until then....bring on the cracks!!!!
suppose i get the upgrade version but have a full retail disc couldn't i do a clean
install with the full disc since i have a license for 7 pro or whatever i buy?
to rush.....huh???? please translate what the hell you are asking????
never mind....
just wait on a crack and you can have w7 ultimate for free!!!!!
