From the official Microsoft site: I'm running Windows XP on my PC. Can I buy the upgrade version of Windows 7? Yes, you can buy the upgrade version of Windows 7, but you'll need to perform a custom installation. This means that you should back up all of your files to an external location and gather the installation discs or setup files for programs that you want to use with Windows 7. For detailed instructions, see Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7. This is what I did. As far the cost goes, yes it is expensive but parents can be persuaded - or think of it as the cost of two or three games.
I do admit that it is a great OS. But after 10 years in use, don't you think that a upgrade would be good?
