It looks like I'm going to have to purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. It turns out the Windows 7 CD I have was just an upgrade license, and I can't find any earlier versions of Windows to upgrade from. So I have 30 days before I need to buy a copy of Windows.
Which would you get: Windows 7 or 8.1? Are there any sites (legitimate) to get Windows 7 or 8.1 for less than full retail? Do they ever go on sale?
Since Windows 10 is coming out so soon, does it matter which version I get? I'm under the impression that you get a free Windows 10 upgrade as long as you have either 7 or 8.1. I'm assuming one could also just buy Windows 10 once it's released. Is there any reason to just use my 30 day trial period and buy Windows 10 once it's released, as opposed to using a free upgrade from 7/8.1?
