No Vista Ultimate upgrade: has Microsoft lost the plot? | |
|

Microsoft as predicted months ago finally announced last week that it would allow PC buyers from now until March when Windows Vista is released to the public to upgrade for a substantial discount or for free, depending on the version. However, Microsoft will not give new PC buyers any discount if they upgrade to the new premium product Vista Ultimate indicating that the software giant has lost the plot. As it stands, in many countries upgrades from Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to Windows Vista Home Premium, and upgrades from Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Tablet PC Edition and Windows XP Professional x64 Edition to Windows Vista Business and Windows Vista Business 64, can upgrade for free plus shipping and handling costs. Upgrades from Windows XP Home Edition to Windows Vista Home Basic and to Windows Vista Home Premium can be had for about a 50% discount from the boxed product upgrade price, once again plus the cost of shipping and handling. | ||

| Getting what they offer for free, is good enough. If you want more, which is for heavy gamers and MSFT nuts, they have to pay alittle more for Ultimate. What is the problem |
