As you may or may not know, Windows it is on its way and
Microsoft is really pushing for it since it will run on PCs as well as tablets.
If you are running Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 then you will be eligible for
an upgrade to Windows 8 pro for just $39.99. Not only that, but Microsoft will
throw in Media Center for free.
One caveat is that this upgrade must take place via the
Windows Upgrade Assistant which means you will have to download your new copy
of Windows rather than get it on disk. A DVD copy of the upgrade will cost you
$69.99. The upgrade assistant can supposedly transfer things like Windows
settings, applications and personal files depending on what version you are
upgrading from.
The upgrade promotion for Windows 8 Pro is good through
January 31, 2013. If you download the upgrade you can burn it to DVD for later
use since it comes in an ISO format.
