Not sure on the upgrade website.
50bucks is before promo code discount.
U have to apply the promo code to get to 18bucks pricing.

i was thinking whether the Upgrade Assistant got record the comp hardware specifications and tied it to my license key?
that is how Microsoft tracks each license key and the comp it is tied to

From the faq Windows Upgrade Offer - FAQ

Do I have to install the Windows 8 upgrade on the eligible PC, or can I install it on another PC?

The upgrade offer is tied to a Windows 7 PC purchased between 2 June 2012 and 31 January 2013, but you can choose to redeem the offer and install the upgrade on any compatible Windows-based PC with a qualifying base operating system.

I think cd key and the downloaded iso (version 32 or 64 bit) is tied to the pc that is used to run the upgrade assistant. The iso downloaded on 32bit pc is about 2GB, 64bit pc is about 2.7GB.
