~~~CLU~~~ Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 It's finally time to upgrade offs vista. I have a win 7all in 1 install disk, just need a key...help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann!b@l Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) I suggest you an upgrade to a Win7 Ultimate 64b version. This later is free of some issues present in the other versions. By the way, from what I have read and if it's not a fake, MS has planned in its marketing ploy to make Win 10 free to Windows users (from Win XP until Win 8.1) during the coming 2015 year. Win 10 seems to be a sort of mix between Win 7 and Win 8 in some aspects from what I have tested on one of my PCs these last months. So, worth a shot to wait a bit.

More recently I have heard that they do not plan on making WIndows 10 free.. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/12/11/no_more_free_windows_its_all_about_the_services_guys/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masa_1964 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Some feeling from old happenings from micro$ft, it will not be free. They just end support 7 and olders. upgrade from 8 will be cheaper/easier. just my prediction Masa_1964 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UAdave Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Remember though, MS makes the majority of their money on software whereas Apple makes it on hardware. That is why MS operating systems are typically not free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann!b@l Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Here, MS might make the OS free (the base), but pay only for extra services every months. So a strategy pretty similar to Android OS and paying apps on Playstore, aside its monthly characteristic. A way to keep the control on their products and avoid to lose too much money, like it was the case with all previous versions hacked. Now, it will all depend on what exactly, they have planned to make paying and how much. More recently I have heard that they do not plan on making WIndows 10 free.. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/12/11/no_more_free_windows_its_all_about_the_services_guys/ yep, I had read things pretty similar me too.
