Microsoft To Offer Vista Upgrade Coupon

Interested in upgrading to Window's Vista when it arrives? Chances are that Microsoft may add a little extra Christmas cheer, and provide coupons to assist you. Would you consider the upgrade to Vista if you could utilise the coupon and pay a 'reasonable' fee for the opportunity? Feel free to let comment below...

I wonder if they would let me "trade-up" my XP x64 copy that I traded up from XP 32?

Talking of "trade-up" - is this Visa going to be something u can use as an upgrade in a similar way as ME->XP ?

Or even in a way x64->Visa ?

I don`t know, is Visa processor dependant - or or or, I dunno !?!?!

just another version of windows, i'm sure they will let you "trade-up" from any version of xp.

Oh, and it's vista by the way, not visa. you could pay for it using your visa mind you

That`s the point, most people will probably have to

I`m guessing it`ll be a transition thing, be interested if there are processor variants of it mind u.
