Cheapest you've seen a Windows 7 upgrade

**Little-Miss** · 5th January 2012, 09:30 AM

As my efforts to put XP Pro on my new netbooks has failed (Putting XP Pro on Toshiba NB500) I need to look at purchasing Windows 7 and my budget isnt great. Does anyone know of where i can get the media and license for a decent price.

Get ours from Civica or Pugh Computers. Win 7 pro without media is about £35

**nephilim** · 5th January 2012, 09:48 AM

was going to say, the cost of the key is around £35 (regardless of edition), its just the cost of the disk that makes things sky high!

Have you looked at EES?

Sorry to hear it didnt work

. Another software company you can look into is Software Asset Management (SAM), Software Licensing and IT Services:Phoenix Software Ltd

About £32/33 I paid from Trustmarque

Have a look at Ramesys. They have the price listed as £30.24 but you will need to be a member of 1 of the listed Regional Broadband Consortium (RBC) or the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust (SSAT). Windows 7 Professional Upgrade 32/64 bit licence

Qualifying RBC membership:

London Grid for Learning (LGFL)
E2BN
West Midlands Net (WMNET)
Northern Grid For Learning (NGFL)
North West Grid for Learning (NWGFL)
Southwest Grid for Learning (SWGFL)
Or if you are a member of the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust (SSAT)

The cost of a disk with them is £25 - Product Categories

we paid £28.29 from misco - but it was part of a larger order. bulk buying really helps.
