Default Windows 7 Upgrade Coupon ?'s

Hello all,

I was lucky enough to come into possession of a legitimate upgrade coupon for Windows 7 Ultimate x64 from Dell, however I myself no longer have the Windows Vista Ultimate x64 system it came with.

I have read various other posts and websites, however I am still confused: when I receive the disk from windows7upgradeoption.com, will this be the full version of 7 ultimate x64, or just the upgrade version?

Basically, I am trying to figure out if I need to pre-order 7 Ultimate x64 or if I will be able to do a clean install on a PC running Vista Home Premium 32 bit (as opposed to Visa Ultimate 64 the upgrade coupon was "designed for") with the media I am registered to receive!

Please help me clear this up! Thanks!
