Win 7 Pro to Ultimate, how much does it cost?
Does anyone know how much it cost to upgrade Windows 7 Pro to Ultimate using the Anytime Upgrade thing?

I wasn't trying to sound offensive or anything. I just really don't understand why they produced two versions at such a price difference for one or two features.

Also to note, the bitlocker only works with TPM hardware, so most likely you wont be able to use that feature either.

Retail it is only a $20 difference. I have no clue why the anytime "upgrade" would be $130.... greed perhaps? lol

You can use it to encrypt the system drive by using a USB startup key if you don't have the TPM chip. It is designed more for TPM though.

thanks.
Also, did you get the rtm from MSDNAA? perhaps the reason for the high price is because of you didnt pay for the pro?
did anyone buy a retail or upgrade retail pro and see what theupgrade price was?
