These are legit and you can get your Windows 7 Pro Upgrade via this site for $40 CAD (that has now expired as of Jan 5)! The new deal is $95 (still cheaper than buying OEM for $180 after taxes). This offer is valid to anyone who is currently in school with a valid school email address.

noasians .. is this diff from the deal kt posted up earlier .. version wise, i meant .. i have 2 laptops and 1 desktop on xp and 3 desktop on vista .. which is the best version to get .. upgrade or full??
what do you mean there are two versions, from what i know there is only the "upgrade" for $40 USD for Canadian institutes and $30 for USA insititues; people have to understand that the FULL version will allow the user to do a "clean" or "upgrade" install whereas the UPGRADE is only for "upgrade" if you are eligible... if you are on XP, then you are out of luck because there is NO upgrade path from XP to Windows 7
blaaaahhh I get win 7 for free from school...and it was avaliable at the end of Aug. , way before the October release date
yes but that is an upgrade PLUS 1-license these are mainly for people who doens't have msdnaa as not everyone who goes to school are eligible...is NOT really free as it was paid thru your tuitation...LOL
Well there's no free lunch in the world, but if you paid for it...why not use it right? I must say , windows 7 is a worthy download and upgrade for anyone who 's using XP or vista
are these ISO's the same as the discs that will be delivered? i just bought the 64bit pro and dont want to wait for the disc ... these should still accept my product key?
no the links i posted for the ISO downloads are the FULL/RETAIL image of the W7 discs and the ones you ordered and get delivered is only the UPGRADE discs. However the key you just bought will get accepted; the trick is to install via the FULL/RETAIL image (DO NOT ENTER THE KEY DURING THE INSTALLATION), instead skip it and after Windows is done installing, go activate your Windows and enter a new key (that you purchased)
so if i have this correct. download ur full retail image. burn the image onto a dvd. install it but dont enter a key. so when its completed its says its a 30 day trial. then put in the key and activate? and is this just the same way to do it if u have just the upgrade cd? install without key then activate. thanks this is a lot of help =)
that is single-license, you will need to buy for the other systems i have 4, all will be on windows 7
