  It's official: upgrade hack included in Vista SP1
Time: 10:26 EST/15:26 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Scott Dunn: The new Service Pack 1 version of Windows Vista allows end users to purchase the "upgrade edition" and install it on any PC — with no need to purchase the more expensive "full edition."

The same behavior was present when Vista was originally released, but the fact that the trick wasn't removed from SP1 suggests that Microsoft executives approved the back door as a way to make the price of Vista more appealing to sophisticated buyers.
