    I'm one of those people that purchased a notebook during the free Vista to W7 upgrade period so I'm eligible for the no cost W7 upgrade. However, I would also like to additionally upgrade from Home Premium to W7 Ultimate now that it's available.

    What would be the most efficient and economical route to combine all these upgrades and include a student discount? Is there a way to do this so that I only have to upgrades once?

    You need a Windows Anytime Upgrade from W7 Premium to Ultimate. Its 139.99. Once you install your Home premium upgrade you can use the Anytime Upgrade to unlock ultimate.
