You can buy the Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade. Any version of XP or Vista will work for any upgrade version of Windows 7. Because you’re increasing in level (Home Premium to Ultimate), you’ll even be able to do an in-place upgrade (keep all your programs). If you go the other way (Ultimate to Home Premium), you’d have to wipe the computer and start over.
Yes, you can buy windows 7 and upgrade from windows vista, or xp.
You can do the Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade discs — the ones with the $219 list price.
But I’d confirm first that you really need all the features of Ultimate. If you’re not going to use things like BitLocker and the language packs, you could be wasting a lot of money unnecessarily.
