-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Windows XP

It will say upgrade on it.  It has been my experence though that an up grade is 
a very unstable system after thge install.  I suggest that you do a "real" 
fresh install.  I understand that some pocket books can't afford this.  An 
upgrade is about $80.00 (plus or minus) and a home version non upgrade is about 
100.00 (plus or miunus).  
 
But what i was trying to explain is since you have the legal CD all you need to 
do is buy a license for your folks (basically the sticker for their computer 
with a product code) with that you can use your CD to install XP but use the 
product code on their license.

That's the problem they don't have a legal copy. LOL So I have to buy
least an upgrade for them right? I am wondering how to know it's an upgrade?
