For those who did not read the product information,

You must purchase a qualifying Windows 7 PC between 2 June 2012 and 31 January 2013 to be eligible for this offer. The last day to register and order your Windows 8 upgrade is 28 February 2013.

I take it to mean that if you dont install it by 28th Feb, then say bye bye to $18.

hmm I'm planning to upgrade to SSD soon, if I install win 8 first before installing win 7 will that still affect?

Never tried this, just stick to Win8 easier.
Those already have existing OS and use Win8 as dual or triple boot will face problem after your remove Win8 later.

Look at the download in your USB
it should be some ISO format?
if it is, then U can activate your fav burner...select the ISO file and burn into DVD.
Done deal.


:s13: thanks for sharing!

btw, i have saved a copy on usb. how do i also burn it onto a dvd?

Windows 8 Product keys do not have an expiry date. This promotional period is only for the pricing itself - the key is just like a normal retail key

I asked Microsoft SG personally.
