OEM Vista32 Business
I saw the web site that allows the purchase of the 64bit Vista DVD for about
10USD if you have a valid Product Key. When I built my PC back in January, I
also purchased Windows XP Pro with free upgrade to Vista. Unfortunately I
received OEM Vista Business Upgrade, which does work fine on my PC but the
product key included will not allow me to purchase the 64bit DVD from the web
site I mentioned earlier. My question is this, If I use the "Windows Anytime
Upgrade" for 139.00USD to go to Vista Ultimate, will I then be given a Vista
Ultimate Product Key that I can then use to order the 64bit DVD?

I wish I would have known how this all worked before purchasing XP Pro with
upgrade, Im getting close to the price of Vista Ultimate Retail (if I upgrade
to Ultimate + all the shipping and handling) I would have just waited and
bought the Retail package of Ultimate that has both 32bit and 64bit versions
and saved MUCH hassle.

Please help

Brad

Re: OEM Vista32 Business
thats a lot of hassle to go thru when for $10.00 more you can buy a retail
version of 64bit Vista Business at most online stores.
