I really want to get in on the preorder upgrade deal, just wondering if anyone knows if either of the keys I have will work. 1. I have an old laptop that came with Windows XP, but I don't have an actual Windows disc with it, just the restore cd with all the usual stuff plus Windows, but it has a key obviously. 2. I also have a student edition of Windows Vista Ultimate, but can't find an answer as to whether I can upgrade that or not.

MaxPC posted some "great" news about installing Windows 7 upgrades. Every time you want to reinstall it you have to install and activate XP or Vista first, not just a disc/key check. http://www.maximumpc.com/article/news/windows_7_upgrade_edition_will_require_activated_copy_verification_each_time_it%E2%80%99s_installed
