How to later upgrade from Vista Home Basic Edition to Vista Ultima
I've just bought a laptop from DELL and it came with Vista Home Basic
Edition (which I find worthless since it does not make that much difference with the Windows XP/Media Center I bought couple of years ago). Anyway, I am gathering money in order to buy the MS Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. What's the best way to do that: -Should I simply buy the Ultimate Edition and install it over the Basic Home Edition? or, as I've heard, should I simply purchase the serial key of the Ultimate Edition from Microsoft, and that will unlock the Home Basic version? Thanks |

Why not post this in the Vista general group? It's not a setup question.
