In what is being billed as a limited time offer, Microsoft will let those who buy a boxed version of Vista Ultimate Edition purchase discounted licenses for up to two more PCs in their house. The cost for each of the additional PC licenses is $50; for that amount, consumers can install the Home Premium version of Vista on the other PCs.It might be worth it if you have three computers and want to upgrade them all. I hope they will extend this to the home premium since I only have two computers that can support the upgrade and do not have a need for the extra features of the ultimate edition.
