Re: OEM 32bit to OEM 64bit
No, you cannot upgrade from a 32bit oem to 64bit oem. I had several
conversations with MS about this. The license terms you mention below
refer to Vista Ultimate which gives you the ability to install any 32bit
or 64bit version of Vista that you'd like as long as only 1 is installed
at a time. Obviously this means that you can upgrade from 32bit premium
oem to 64bit Ultimate.
