Windows 7 upgrade edition

[cerberez]

Hi, I'm wondering if there would be any issues with using a windows 7 upgrade over an xp bootcamp.

I'm looking at ms' $30 for students deal, and I think it could be pretty sweet if it works smoothly.

do you think it'll fly?

thanks!

At least do a rudimentary search for upgrade https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/942471/ or student https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/894173/ ....

I thought the $29 deal died a long time ago and was replaced by the $65 deal.

Where? Not at http://win741.com. That has gone up to $65.

No, its $29

For those following along at home the information at win741.com is stale, but leads to a new $29.99 deal at http://www.microsoft.com/student/office/en-us/default.aspx

Good deal if you are an eligible student! (Though this time it is CLEAR it's an upgrade only).
