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?
