    I bought 3 upgrade 8 pro version for $15.99 and I only ended up using 2 license keys ( 2 laptops ) until my nephew wanted 8 on his laptop , so I gave him my third keys . The thing that bother me is my third keys were never used but once I try to activate them I got the screen saying my keys have been used already . How can that be if they were never used , any idea ?

    Where did you get 3 Windows 8 Pro Upgrades for $15.99. I'll go there myself. It sounds like a great deal.

    When's the Deadline to Upgrade?

    To qualify for the $15 upgrade, you must purchase a new PC by Jan. 31, 2013. The deadline to upgrade at the discounted price is Feb. 28, 2013. Microsoft hasn't yet said how much it'll cost to upgrade after the promotion ends.

    Is There a Limit on Upgrades?

    The $15 upgrade offer is limited to one per eligible PC, and five per customer.

    Aside from $15 in Savings, is There Any Reason Not to Buy a New PC Right Now?

    There is more there also.

    Arie , I don't believe I got an error code , could be wrong . What I did remember it saying were the keys more or less have been used already which I can't see how when I never used them before . I was able to activated by phone ...

    PS : Guys, this sale for upgrade 8 pro from Microsoft was real and I'm pretty sure this site did mentions it many of times . I bought 3 license keys knowing it was a good deal . And thanks to Arie clean install of upgrade 8 is even better now .
