I'm trying to research and see if this work the way I'm hoping/expecting. I know it says "upgrade", but I've seen quite a few people in comments and even in the reviews saying you can download the ISO file into a USB drive, and use that to do a clean, fresh install on a PC that has never had an OS on it.
It's a pretty substantial price difference....things I've read seem to indicate you CAN do a new, fresh install with it via USB.
