Now that Windows Vista has officially launched some consumer scrutiny has provided some invaluable insight into the new OS's EULA.THe document, avaible from Microsoft's webiste clearly stats that any user upgrading to Vista from XP will no longer be able to use the upgraded copy of XP. The Vista EULA, suggests that once a consumer has purchased the upgrade he will not be given the option to revert to XP in case, for example, he does not like Vista.The relevant EULA article states: 13.UPGRADES.To use upgrade software, you bust first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade.Upon upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software you upgraded from.After you upgrade, you may no longer use the software you upgraded from. Considering that upgrades will be a popular Vista migration option it is importat that users realise how final a commitment their upgrade will be.Most XP owners are likely to wish to wait until a verdict on Vista is out befure rushing to upgrade. So what you think this new Bill Gate's try to get more n more rich?

The upgrade is a big lie I mean! I never believe in it. if you have xp in your pc it doesn't mean it's Vista capable, so you have to buy another pc to use it and I think that an inteligent person buy a pc with Vista inside yet. So Bill Gate is a genius, a telematic fox
