I bought the Vista OEM System Builder Pack back when I was building my PC and was wondering if Microsoft is taking OEM CD keys for the upgrade to Windows 7. A friend of mine said they weren't. Just wanting to clarify this.

Would like to get Windows 7 upgrade while its on sale.

Thanks

Found this in some Microsoft press release:

Quote :

"There is a lot of excitement for Windows 7 in the marketplace today. However, many consumers need a new Windows PC for school, work or home before October 22. So starting June 26th, any customer who buys a PC from a participating computer maker or retailer with Windows Vista Home Premium, Business or Ultimate will also receive an upgrade to the corresponding version of Window 7 at little or no cost," said Brad Brooks, corporate vice president, Windows consumer marketing at Microsoft.



In other words, yes, unless you're currently using Windows Vista Home Basic.

That's what I thought as well.
