Editor Update – The rumors were true as released in a Microsoft Announcement. Here’s the details from Microsoft. According to Paul Thurrott and Mary Jo Foley, sources tell them the promotion will start on June 2nd.
This comes as no surprise as Microsoft has always offered a similar promotion prior to the launch of a new version of Windows. After all, if no such promotion was offered sales would take a dive as users waited it out for the new operating system. But, this time around Windows 8 will only have two different versions: normal, and Pro. New PC Buyers will not have the option to upgrade to the base version of Windows 8, instead the $14.99 Pro will be the only option. Windows 8 Upgrade Offer Comment Name * Email *
