W7 upgrade Europe.

Some information for European users of Windows wanting to upgrade to W7.

Quote:
The bad news is that there's no upgrade from Vista to the EC-crippled Windows 7E, users will have to do a custom (clean) installation
Quote:
A custom installation does not preserve your files, settings, and programs. So, before installing E editions of Windows 7, make sure to back up your files and settings to an external hard disk, USB Flash Drive, or other media. After the installation, move your files and settings back to your PC and reinstall the programs you want to keep using.
Quote:
It's a fair bet that some consumers will lose important data, because they are simply not computer literate enough to do a clean installation.
