Anyone Tried The £14.99 "New PC" Win 8 Pro Offer ?

[Marzipanogram]

Just curious if anyone has tried the "I've got a new PC" trick to get Win 8 Pro for £14.99 instead of the usual upgrade price and if so does it work ?
Any possible future downsides ?

Yes, it works.

Seems to have worked for me, currently downloading.

I'm using it right now....

Nice one
Is there any need to use a fake name and address or just use your real details ?
And can you suggest a "name of retailer" and "PC model" to use ?

It works. Also, save to an iso and you can fresh install over win7.

Great thanks.
One more question.
Can you specify the 64bit version during the buying stage ?

I'm not one of the forum's self-righteous volunteer software licence enforcers, but really, this is just blatant dishonesty isn't it?

You're saving, what, £10 over the regular (legitimate) upgrade price... are you all really that hard up?

Rather ridiculous really, the cheapest MS OS ever at £24.99 and people still feel the need to cheat the system to get it cheaper.

That said, MS have left it wide open for abuse, so it's not surprising.

Yes, I really am that hard up.
I enjoy a lavish lifestyle that having a disposable income £1 a day affords.
I'd prefer to blow half a month "wage" on the OS, than nearly a full months worth.

Did you write a similar post to the people who are buying the £25 upgrade, but using it for clean installs, instead of buying the full version ?

Please use this to help you get down from your high horses

To everyone else, thank you all
