Limited Number of Free Windows 7 Upgrades

Robert Hodges June 29, 2009

Businesses purchasing new computers between now and the Windows 7 release on October 22nd will be limited to 25 free upgrades.

These details were finalized last week – providing for consumers who recently purchased a Vista-based computer to be able to upgrade to Windows 7 at little or no cost in October. Brandon LeBlanc (Microsoft) blogged, “Anyone who buys a PC from a participating OEM or retailer with Windows Vista Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate on it will receive an upgrade to the corresponding version at little or no cost to customers.”

Enterprise customers who have a Software Assurance license will also be able to upgrade to Windows 7 at no additional charge, with unlimited upgrades for a three year period on all licensed computers.
