Sure. 7 / 8.1 -> 10, for the august 2016 lotto.
There is nothing saying such, and indeed retail licenses will access Windows 10 just as easily as before after mid-2016. But believe as you will, it won't change the fact that people will be...
Which is all all you and WhyMe are, in this matter. The understanding that Windows 10 will continue to be accessible for retail licenses beyond mid-2016 comes from the information which Microsoft has...
This issue has been beaten to death on these forums. A retail Windows 7 / 8.1 license that has been upgraded will be able to transfer beyond the free upgrade period, and still access the upgrade to...
Not exactly.
In this case, the user will have to first install Windows 7 or 8.1 onto their PC, then do an online upgrade through Microsoft's servers - which will work because the Windows 7 or 8.1...
A user does not need to disagree on their own behalf, when Microsoft have allowed licenses to be upgraded for Windows 10, and those upgraded licenses already contain in their original terms the...
The transfer rights of an upgraded retail license do not disappear if taking the free upgrade offer to Windows 10. There still remains the right for a retail license holder to transfer their copy of...
An offer being promotional does not influence the rights of a person's owned license in away way. If the license is upgraded to Windows 10, it still retains its original rights properties.
That as a convention is not disputed. The acceptability of the definition for device is.
No, that isn't how things work. An EULA is not deemed unenforceable, unless it is a terrible EULA in...
Just read what's already written. You attempted to reduce the definition of "computer" to paralleling "OS", so that the legal stipulations of a license agreement is "one OS may be installed per this...
Microsoft have said like-for-life license upgrades, retaining all original license rights. That means retail for retail. Also, Microsoft cannot take away a person's retail license rights in exchange...
Now that is taking things even a step beyond the narrowing of Microsoft's definition of device, and excessively reaching well beyond common sensibility, and is, simply put, wrong.
I also think that the UI in Windows 10 is distasteful. Before I find Windows 10 an environment that I can spend a serious amount of time in, I'll need to install things like:
Aeor Glass: Aero...
Even as a contact, it is not necessarily binding, and will not necessarily stand up in court, and precedence testifies to this. Many companies attempt unenforceable policies with EULA jargon that...
Have you first upgraded from a legitimate Windows 7 / 8 license? If so, you can. If not, you need to do that first before Microsoft's servers will recognize your PC as being authorized for Windows 10.
Things had new looks in Windows Vista / 7 compared to XP about as much as they do in Windows 10. And in Windows 10, the new looks are more frivolous than they were in Vista / 7. I think that what you...
No, you need to be willing to learn what's new, and to stand against the changes that are not beneficial. The times are still that the classic styled start menu is much more efficient for many...
I've been keeping my eye on it, but as I'm not using Windows 10 at this moment (waiting for SR1 and maybe SR2), I haven't used it yet. It says the Win10 version is currently an experimental build,...
That's not necessarily true. Until it is tested in court, it can be deemed unenforceable, and if tested in court, it could be found invalid. Agreeing to an EULA as a technicality to access software...
It's normal for the Windows 10 upgrades, as there aren't unique license keys being given to people who use the free upgrade. There are a small number of communal keys that are given to everyone...
Accepting EULAs is what it is. Microsoft previously already said that they would give like-for-like licenses for Windows 10. I accepted the Windows 10 upgrade offer under those provisions, and now I...
EULA's are not laws. If a section of an EULA is unreasonable in the eyes of a court, it doesn't stand. Microsoft's interpretation of "device" may not be a reasonable interpretation of "device". Most...
I got a very limited number of them in Windows 7 only from maxing out my RAM and Windows page file space, from running excessive amounts of programs, and still trying to write to my disk while doing...
That article is dated July 23. There are currently two "Service Release" patches expected, which I guess work out to be the same thing as service packs. The N/A next to Windows 10 on this list:...
Vista was just like 7 - except for people with low grade PC hardware (which there were a lot of at the time of Vista's release).
