Legal way to get a CHEAP upgrade if you aren't eligible


Hi there

If you search the web there are still a few places where you can get Genuine "Shrink Wrapped" Ms Windows 7 Pro for quite a cheap price -- approx. 50 USD or so.

Install this and you will then be entitled to a FREE W10 upgrade. OK it costs a bit but it's cheaper than paying say 160 - 180 USD for a new W10 Pro licence.

You'll have to be quick though as those copies of W7 are rapidly becoming "Out of Stock".

This is 100% LEGAL - Software from Ms and no torrents etc etc. Genuine NEW UNOPENED and UNUSED software.

Cheers

Be very careful, many of those places are selling pirated software. Those won't be legal.

I got one from BestBuy, cost $102 with tax. It's an OEM version of Windows 7 Home Premium.

couple of days ago Aldi (uk) were offering W7, they wont be pirates

For $50?

I paid $99.00 to MS for Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit Not an OEM.

I decided to buy an ex business Dell Optiplex 780 with an activated win 7 Pro on it for $NZ100. Got a cheap win 10 and a 'free' very useful computer as well. It's now my wife's comp replacing one with Vista on it.

(Converting the w10 Home price of $USD119 came to $NZ179).

Even if you get one of those cheap keys for £20 and it's 'legit' enough to activate a clean install of Win 7 or 8 (and stay activated) there's a ~99% chance it will be an Enterprise key and not eligible for a Win 10 upgrade anyway.

If you're a student, parent of a student or educator, then getting a student deal for WIn 10, when released, will probably one of the cheapest ways of getting it.

For the UK, the cheapest legit, non-educational, way I know of is to buy a Windows 10 OEM DVD that you can install on the new PC you build for your woman...

£77 for Windows 10 Home
£110 for Windows 10 Professional

That's basically the same as what Win 7 & 8 OEM cost.

If you know of a better deal then let us know.
