Really? Then how does the MS "Anytime Upgrade" work? Say I wanted to take my version of Home Premium to the Ultimate of Foolishness. Supposedly I go online and purchase a license for Ultimate, then enter the new license key, and "poof" I'm upgraded. You may think they're going to download all the changes to the OS via the Internet, but that is not my understanding of how it works. I have no way to test this personally though since there is no way in heck I'd ever upgrade my flavor of Win 7. But you were also indirectly correct in pointing out an error I made. Actually my retail copy of Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade has two DVDs. One DVD is for the 32-bit flavor and the other is for the 64-bit.
