I purchased Vista Ultimate downloadable upgrade from Microsoft two nights
ago. I paid $259.99 plus tax for this edition and spent lots of my personal
time downloading the software and putting it on CD using the Digital Library
that accompanied the download.
Given that I paid more than many stores are charging for the retail boxed
version, why wouldn't I be able to use a legally downloaded version and legal
license directly from Microsoft to purchase the family upgrade?
I have 5 PCs, two which only need the Home Premium version so this upgrade
would be perfect for my needs. I don't particularly want to go spend another
$300 to purchase two retail boxed licenses when others can get them both for
$100 having purchased a less expensive retail boxed version. It just doesn't
seem fair. Seems like as long as you carry a legal license of Windows
Ultimate Vista you should be able to purchase the family upgrade.
