Have 99% decided to upgrade from ME. I have run the compatibility software from Microsoft and only real conflict is Norton AV 2000 which will become u/s.

I have seen it for £79.99 from jungle.com but I thought I would ask the enlightened Scoobynet masses before parting with my cash.

Cheers

TONY

If you have kids at full-time school or college, or any of your immediate family are in full-time eductaion, then you can qualify for the student licence, otherwise its about £80ish.

Take a look at Pricewatch.

www.gb.buy.com are selling the XP home upgrade at £81.80. If you use the £20 off vochure at http://www.ukfrenzy.co.uk/buycom.htm you can get it for £61.80. I think p&p is about £5 extra.
