Windows 10 Priced

Dont really see why it would matter, after all most people would have a win7/8 serial already, and if they dont, they could just grab a 7/8 key for cheap right now and just upgrade.

Pirates will go on pirating since they dont already have a key and are too stingy to grab a 7/8 key right now even though it is so cheap and they wouldnt have to pay the cost of adapting new software at launch.
 
I remember years ago I had a Vista license on my Alienware rig. Microsoft were offering a free 64 bit DVD. Well, sort of. You ran your key and paid a £7 handling charge and they sent you a 64 bit DVD. Sadly OEM keys did not work so it may be retail only. Either way my 8.1 serial has died so I'm going to bite the bullet and buy a retail copy because I want DX12.

If you are already on W7/W8.1 then don't bother.. just wait till the free upgrade and save money:)

How can a serial die? :huh:...

It expires.
 
I have had a windows sign come up next to my Action center Flag (win 7) that says reserve windows 10 :)
 
I haven't

Oh I wonder why I have it then it says "Get Windows 10" so I clicked on it I had to give my e-mail address to reserve it then it said it will download Windows 10 once available.
I'll get a notification after it is downloaded then I just install it whenever I am ready

Was it in Windows update or just the action center?
 
Its a windows sign in between the flag for the action center and show hidden icons bottom right hand side of screen
 
It expires.

:lol:... Haha, now that is just funny how I could've so missunderstood that one!

Same for me now that I look lol... a little white windows button, like the icon in the far bottom left in this picture below:

Sadly I don't have the upgrade option as the windows key I bought from a Reddit vendor along with a few others from here has been blocked by MS so now I need to wait a while until I can afford to buy a legit version of windows :(

And how come they have blocked yours?... seems a bit odd by MS to block it lol.
 
Dumb question alert again!... why do you need to reserve it? :huh:...

What happens if you reserve it, install it and then might have to reinstall windows etc?... does it make any difference or so?...

you have to reserve it because microsoft doesn't want to download a 3GB update and update your computer with a new OS without your permission.
 
Well that just sucks and is harsch mate :(... that is so not cool dude. Kinda like ripping you off your money in a way...

Indeed, Odd though as he's a trusted seller and has been selling for a number of years, I've tried contacting him but he's ignored me.

Hahaha dude!, I know that all well...

Edit, actually just made a thread for this instead, as it's better to put it their rather than going off topic in this one.
