1112313 2010-06-22 03:48:00 Trouble is with the W7 3 User, its not an upgrade version, its OEM, so you will have to muck about getting it to install over the top of Vista or do a fresh install of W7.

The upgrade option is grayed out in it. As per Ascents web site (www.ascent.co.nz)
Please note: Please be advised that you can not upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 with an OEM version. If you wish to upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7, you will need to purchase Windows 7 Upgrade product.

Not the one that I know about... It's an upgrade only. It is difficult to install it clean. I wasn't aware of any OEM 3 user packs.

EDIT: I followed your link, and that is a different pack entirely. The one we are thinking of is an upgrade for 3 computers and costs $299

Saying its available with no indication of where is like giving out last weeks lotto numbers.


Edited:
Never mind-- I'll be more helpful Stores available from (www.microsoft.com)

To repeat Speedy --
It is difficult to install it clean Whats so Difficult ??? If you are referring to installing an upgrade as fresh -- Its just a bit of mucking about.
