I currently have the version of Vista Business in Japanese (I live in Japan).
I want to purchase the Anytime Upgrade for Ultimate, but I've checked the
FAQs and there's two questions I haven't found answers to:
1) When purchasing this upgrade, will my license go from OEM to the full
(transferable) retail version? The price seems to suggest/justify such a
change. If not, it's almost cheaper to buy the full Ultimate OEM version, and
practically worth it to just break down and buy the Ultimate Upgrade pack and
use my old XP license.
2) The Anytime Upgrade doesn't seem to be available in Japanese... from
inside the Japanese OS, if I select Anytime Upgrade it takes me to a page
with American retailers, naturally all in English. If I purchase the Anytime
Upgrade from them, will it work on the Japanese OS? Will it (hopefully...
magically?) turn my OS into English? I'm sure I can change the language with
the MUI in Ultimate, but I'm mostly curious if the English upgrade will
actually work on the Japanese version of Vista.
Thanks for the info!
