July 22, 2011
I originally purchased a Dell Vostro desktop computer with Microsoft Vista. Vista was a mess, so I wanted to run XP. I was forced to pay an additional $59.99 to "downgrade" to Windows XP with the purchase of this computer. Once Windows 7 was out for awhile and stable, I decided to upgrade my operating system.
On July 22, 2011- I ordered Windows 7 Professional Upgrade from www.onlinedigitalitems.com I was looking to upgrade over a weekend and (in our fast-food culture), I did not want to wait to have the media shipped. I found this Retailer in a Google Shopping search. At the time, the merchant had decent ratings with Google. I paid almost
$85.95 for the upgrade, downloaded from a secure link, and was sent another secure link to download the license key from another secure site. Although everything appeared legitimate, I used PayPal as I felt the Buyer Protection would provide an additional layer of assurance.

There was no upgrade path from Microsoft. After an afternoon ensuring I had all needed programming installation files and confirming backups, I completed the upgrade.
