Uniform - Probably not. I haven't seen that price published anywhere with certainty - but it's rumored to be about $20 to $30.

There is no Anytime Upgrade from Pro to Ultimate. There are only 3 - Starter to Home Premium, Home Premium to Pro and Home Premium to Ultimate. Details are in the blog post here http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windows7/archive/2009/07/31/windows-anytime-upgrade-and-family-pack-pricing.aspx

As each SKU contains all other "flavors", too, those can be unlocked via Anytime Upgrade... err, anytime. Don't be misleaded by the examples in the above mentioned blog.

Just found this: "[Windows 7] Professional to Ultimate 85" (http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/264640/microsofts-outrageous-windows-7-upgrade-ripoff.html). As the other prices and their U.S. correspondings match what the Windows Team Blog said, convert ityourself.Mobile AMD64 3000+, VIA Apollo K8T800 chipset, 1 G RAM, ATIRadeonMobility 9700, 20x DVDRW, C:XPSP3 (55G),D:WIN7 (25G),F:DATA (250G)

I have a question about windows anytime upgrade. It never listed the price to upgrade from WIN 7 PRO to WIN 7 ULT. Anyone have an answer? As seen on the news today, the prices are finally available. In the US, it seems to be $130 from Win 7 Pro to Win 7 Ultimate. If you're in the EU, the price will be 135/85.

Well - even if it's not a strictly technical issue -, this pricing policy is just hilarious. Who shall pay this 135/85 in addition to 190 for 7 Prof when he is offered 7 Ultimate at the same time for 200 (Microsoft Store UK)? Not to speak of OEM "free upgrade options" with Vista Ultimate -> Windows 7 Ultimate that cost around 150/128 at the online shops of your choice. The only way I can think of that is that the "retail" market is some kind of luxury for Microsoft, where the real money comes from preinstalled Windows PCs.Mobile AMD64 3000+, VIA Apollo K8T800 chipset, 1 G RAM, ATIRadeonMobility 9700, 20x DVDRW, C:XPSP3 (55G),D:WIN7 (25G),F:DATA (250G)

Man, if these prices are true. M$ is sticking it to us consumers. I just wished that M$ would have gave pple like me who bought Vista Ult. a deal for WIN 7 Ult. Well, I already Have WIN 7 Pro pre-ordered. Will have to wait and see what the confirmed price will be for this anytime upgrade to Ult. Thanks all for your prompt replies.
