Best Buy's Upgrade Pricing for Windows 7: Free, $50, $100 Depending on Your Situation


According to an internal memo from computer super-store Best Buy (found by tech blog Engadget), consumers who purchase a new computer after June 26th will qualify for a free upgrade to Windows 7 when it's released October 22nd. For the rest of us looking to upgrade from Vista, the prices don't look bad (assuming the memo has it right): $49.99 for a Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade and $99.99 for a Windows 7 Professional upgrade.
