I wonder if they'll let the (vast number of) pirated versions of Windows 7/8 participate in the free upgrade program. It'd be an interesting change to the dynamic of Windows.
- secfirstmd 12y agoEspecially in emerging world markets, where it's often impossible to buy a legitimate copy of Win 7/8 even when you want to.
- mmebane 12y agoI would be a bit surprised if they did. The $14.99 Win7 -> Win8 upgrade they offered for a while required validation of your old product key. Still, MS has changed quite a bit in the last few years, so it's hard to say.
- ckarmann 12y agoI doubt it, but anyway if you pirated your Windows 7, you can pirate your Windows 10 too...
