free upgrade? Is it still available?

I called Amazon and they could not verify that the free upgrade would be included. I also called Toshiba and I was told that units meeting certain requirements and manufactured after March of this year are eligible (what ever that means since we can't verify that information). Although I did not get a "guarantee" of any kind, I bought the Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 anyway. Fortunately, it arrived with instructions on how to receive the free upgrade to Windows 7. I chose the online option to request the upgrade. The Windows 7 upgrade does cost about $12 for tax, shipping, handling. So not exactly free, but almost. They do require a copy of your proof of purchase that you can scan and attach to your online request or it can be faxed or mailed separate from you online request. Hope this helps.

Windows 8.1; even if it was Windows 8, you get free upgrades to the latest Windows 8.x

I don't think there is a time frame. They always just notify me via email when there is a patch or upgrade at no charge

Nope. The app and all updates are FREE. They have updated every few months and have tweaked features based upon customer feedback.

The upgrade versions will let you perform a clean install, only it will ask you to insert the genuine CD of an older OS during installation to verify you are actually upgrading. Microsoft certainly isn't going to take your word that you already have a copy! Save your money and buy the upgrade versions.

Not even close to any free update; the update is very expensive; might as well buy a new model.

I did it. It is free. If you don't get an upgrade offer came up when 1st initiating and Registering Windows after you start the machine the 1st time, you can Google "Windows 8.1 Upgrade" and select the download from the MS website. You can also check the list of updates in the Windows Update app in Control Panel. It takes a while to download and install.

Yes, after installing it you have to get the upgrade from Nuance available only on-line for free. It doesn't work until you do.

I can't recall but I don't think so. You may have to enter the FCE2 key to authorize the upgrade.

The upgrade to 2010 is FREE if you have 2009!!! In fact, any product you buy from Norton is upgradeable for free - they just don't like to show it! Buy the Norton 2009 from Amazon at the cheap price - Then, go here: http://updatecenter.norton.com//manually.ftl?NUCLANG=en This will lead you to the Norton Update Center (yes, it is norton's own website see in the address "norton.com") where you can choose your product (Norton Internet Security) and version (2009) and it will provide you with the appropriate download. I just did this today - it works!

Yes, I believe that's the last official upgrade it got (4.1.2). It should come as an over the air update.
