   Using an ultrabook with no optocal drive often determines how I install or update software. I wanted this version of the OS for its network capabilities. It deliveted in every respect. The update was as painless as it was speedy. The code unlocked all aspects of the software. Money well spent.

   Worked as promised! Download, installation and product activation a smooth process. The price was hard to pass up! When I am ready for another upgrade I will be buying from this vendor again.

   This is a great product if you bought a pc with Windows 7 home. It is necessary to first update your machine as much as possible, because the anytime upgrade may fail if some things are not updated or installed. The online code is just perfect, no waiting time and no product packaging or shipment to waste. Excellent option and service.

   Nice to be able to get the key electronically, then do the upgrade effortlessly. Great price compared to other suppliers. I had my system upgraded and running in less then 10 minutes. As others have commented, all you need to do is click on the “Windows Anytime Upgrade” menu item, and enter your new key and the System will do the rest.

   This was a purchase to upgrade a Win7 Home Premium pc to Ultimate.
   I received the upgrade code number immediately.
   My pc took about 10 minutes to upgrade. Everything went ok, no data or
   settings were lost. Very smooth, indeed.
   Pros: instant receipt of upgrade code.
   Easy upgrade, plug and play.
   Very good price for the instant upgrade.
   Cons: None
   I would recommend this product to anyone!!. It’s a winner.

   First off, I bought this upgrade because I wanted to download the language packs and make my Laptop run smoother. I own a Sony VAIO E’ series laptop running a 64-bit system and 8GB’s of memory. You get EXACTLY what Amazon promises; An online code to enter it when prompted by Windows Anytime Upgrade. I didn’t want to wait for a disc to show up on the mail. It’s basicaly useless once you use the activation key anyway. The code is displayed right after the purchase is complete. You don’t have to wait for it to get emailed to you or nothing like that. I highly recommend this method of upgrading to anyone who has Windows 7 Home Premium and is looking to upgrade to Ultimate. Just make sure you have Windows Anytime Upgrade. I read other reviews in which people were expecting to get a download link of some sort or a disc in the mail. Amazon Digital Services doesn’t do that. I don’t know how to use XP or Vista modes and I’m really not interested so I won’t comment on that part of the software. I did notice that I got a suite of Windows Live tools. Windows Live Writer, Windows Live Mesh and Windows Live Family Safety. I am also now able to work in French. I also noticed that my laptop starts and shuts down a bit quicker. About 5 seconds quicker. I am very satisfied with my purchase. The key worked just fine. It is an authentic key not a trial like another reviewer posted. The entire process took about 15min. I have a rather slow internet connection so it might be less for you if you are using cable modem or satellite or you have a faster processor.

   Most laptops (including the one I bought at the same time) seem to come with Windows 7 Home Premium (even those aimed at business users).

   Windows 7 Ultimate has the Bitlocker feature which encrypts your hard drive. It’s a very worthwhile feature on a laptop.

   The difference in price between the upgrade to Ultimate vs the lower priced Professional made this an easy decision.

   Too bad the prices aren’t this close in the regular upgrade editions.

   The anytime upgrade feature is quick and dirty. It involves entering the product key and a couple of reboots. It took me about 10 minutes to complete. The bits are already in your OS.

   You can actually do this all from within Windows (including the purchase of the Key from Microsoft), but you will save money buying it here instead.

   The packaging for this is overkill as it just contains a card with your product key printed on it (I am keeping the packaging though since it will lessen the likelihood of my misplacing the product key). The steps are the same, sans purchase.

   Windows has come a long way since ’98! I did an Anytime Upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate. I wanted to encrypt my drive but found out your computer needs a special chipset in order to be able to encrypt the drive the OS is located on. You can still encrypt other drives but you can’t automatically “unlock” them unless you encrypt the OS partition and have that special chipset on your computer’s mobo. I like the transparent XP mode. Some other good features but it is debatable with regard to whether to extra price is worth it overall. The difference in the upgrade price between the “low – medium – high” versions of the OS pretty much dictates, “go for broke” because the price difference is so small. Overall, Windows 7 is a winner. I’m glad to see Microsoft finally has a stable, self-healing OS!

    The online code purchase for the Anytime Upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate is an outstanding purchase and highly recommended for anyone that is using Home Premium. It unlocks many important functions in the operating system including remote desktop, which allows you to safely control the computer from another computer. I recommend the code because a disc isn’t needed you just enter the code and everything gets done automatically by Windows 7 for you after a quick verification and a restart.

    Worked Great! must pay attention to all the popups so you print the page that has your code and put in a safe place so if you have to reinstall your original OS (Premium) u have this code to make it Ultimate again. I do alt + print sceen and save the page as well in paint. so as some reviewers are giving this bad reviews because they dont pay attention this is a (code) not a download. there is nothing to download. windows will do all the downloading automatically when you put in the code. Pay attention to the screen as you cannot retreive code later. It went smooothly for me. I needed this because my HP laptop had premium and needed the XP mode for some automotive applications that are only XP compatible and i must say the XP mode is great. Definitly worth the upgrade!!! i tried using sunbox and other virtual xp software programs and they just were glitchy and failed on me messing up my software numerous times.I got the ultimate becasue at the time it was only five dollars more for ultimate over professional which would give me the XP mode but for five dollars you get the bitlocker and some other security and backup solutions as well as any language.

    I purchased this update and was up and running with Window 7 Ultimate in less than an hour – the installation installed several updates. I upgraded from Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. My biggest reason for upgrading was that I wanted to run 64 bit Windows 7 and I also wanted to run Musicmatch Jukebox 10. I had installed Windows 7 64 bit on another computer and then changed the installation to 32 bit just to run Musicmatch Jukebox, but I wanted to run 64 bit Windows on my new Asus Laptop so that I could make maximum use of the installed ram. If you are installing this update it is best to insure that your computer CPU is designed running virtual environments. My Musicmatch Jukebox library is on an external hard drive and it was a snap to add the drive to the Windows XP mode virtual machine by clicking on the USB label and adding the USB device. I ran Windows as a virtual machine on a Linux box using VMWare years ago – I am a geek at heart! I think I will have lots of fun with this! I think it was well worth the price and am certain that I will appreciate the other functions built into the Ultimate edition.

    I bought my quad core 64 bit computer around 18 months ago. Graphics work has been slow and frustrating from the beginning. When I called Hewlett Packard and complained, their tech support walked me through a Windows7 reinstall… TWICE! The problem continued. Countless please for help went unanswered, both by manufacturer and independant sources. All by myself I found out this: *IF* you want a 64 bit processor to run at that speed, you can ONLY achieve it if you use the two highest levels of Windows7! Windows Home Premium or less will reduce your 64 bit computer to a 32 bit computer, and the only way around it is to upgrade your operating system! It never occurred to me that any manufacturer would be dumb enough to market a computer preloaded with an operating system that limits the computer’s performance! What’s next? Sports cars with governors on the engine so you can’t go over 35? With this upgrade, my graphics programs are FINALLY running as they should. But I’m not too happy about all of the geeks I turned to who didn’t have a clue. What kind of world is this?

    The delivery was as expected pretty quick, and the set up was a code type in, for my Win 7 Home premium edition anytime upgrade portion, then It took 5 ten minutes, and all the features of Win7 Ultimate were unlocked. To get the Virtual Pc, and Xp mode operational you need to download free updates from the Microsoft website, and bitlocker needs an update too I believe. I just wanted the Xp mode and Virtual Pc. Everything is working great. Go to your search engine type Microsoft or Windows 7 virtual pc downloads, it’ll list the Microsoft site, follow the steps they give you and you’ll have it all working in no time. Same with bitlocker.

    starsIt’s a LEGAL key and activates one of the best MS OS’es. Just say NO to 10 🙂
    Worked great and the only place I could find a LEGAL copy of Windows 7 Ultimate.
    If you get an error IT’S MICROSOFT just the call the activation number and activate it over the phone.
    WRITE down the activation code and keep it in case of future re-installs and you are good to go!

    A terrific value on a quality product
    A terrific value on a quality product.

    My hard drive failed and, since I didn’t have the good sense to back up all my data, I lost everything, including the operating system. I don’t know much about computers so, since the machine came with Windows 7 that’s what I wanted to put back on it. The fact that it is downloaded meant that I could retrieve it again if something happened to this new operating system download. I required some assistance and found that this vendor, y-unlocked, was very helpful and timely when I needed them.
