If I purchase a “Windows Anytime Upgrade†from a full OEM Version of Vista
Business to Ultimate is my copy now considered retail?

Ther Upgrade license would be retail, but the original OEM license
would naturally remain unchanged.

Just wondering if I could then access technical support for 90 days at no
charge. I don't have that option with my OEM copy and I am considering using
a couple of the Ultimate features.

Thanks.
 
Hi,

What features do you anticipate the need for technical support for? Yes, a
retail upgrade would have support incidents included, but you may be able to
find help for them here.

Yes It Does Convert You From An OEM Product ID To A Retail Version Product
ID, And You Will Be Required To Contact Microsoft, Rather Than Your OEM, For
All Software Related Problems, Just FYI.
