Hey guys
So I'm in the process of building a new PC and I don't have an OS for it. Windows 10 retails for around $100 or so, but I also know that you can do a free upgrade to Windows 10 if you have a legit copy of Windows 7 or 8.
Windows 7 OEM versions can be found online through Amazon and other legitimate sellers for around $50 on a regular basis, so my question is, what reason is there to buy a Windows 10 CD and install it when I can just get Windows 7 for half the price, and then do an upgrade? Are there any negative drawbacks that I might encounter doing an upgrade vs. a clean install?
