Since it launched Windows 7 Beta, Microsoft informed users as at the launch the final version, those who hold an operating system Windows Vista (with a license) will be able to do upgrade direct la OS, this upgrade costing less than The installation DVD Al Windows 7. At the same time, he also stated as the users Windows XP they will not benefit from such an upgrade. But, the other days, Microsoft announced that it has "changed" the upgrade to Windows 7 will be available And for them.
In this case, everyone should be satisfied, but there are a few small kitchens that users Windows you have to accept them. Thus, those who own a Windows Vista OS must know that if they choose to upgrade, the conditions will be the following:
- Windows Vista Home Premium – upgrade only to Windows 7 Home Premium
- Windows Vista Business – upgrade only to Windows 7 Professional
- Windows Vista Ultimate – upgrade only to Windows 7 Ultimate
If, for example, you currently own a Windows Vista Home Premium with a license, you will not be able to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate. To make a "exchange" of Tags (which involves functionality each version separately), you will need to make a normal installation of the system.
XP users will have the opportunity to buy License at price releading by choosing to upgrade to the bone, but this upgrade will behave like a Installation "from 0 (zero)". And the upgrade conditions are the same as at Windows Vista (possible only between equivalent versions).

However, there are quite a lot of fans (declared or not: p) you have Windows 7 that do not take into account these small impediments and is looking forward to the launch of the final versions. Windows 7, hurry up! :)
