I have just seen this regarding the free upgrade from Win 8 to Win 9:-
http://www.pcr-online.biz/news/read/...-report/034823 Microsoft’s Indonesia president has announced that Windows 9 will be available for free for Windows 8 users. According to Indonesian tech site
Detik, Andreas Diantoro said: “The Windows 9 upgrade will be available free of charge to all existing Windows 8 users once it's released."
BGN translated the original report from Detik, revealing that once Windows 9 (also known as Threshold) is released, Windows 8 users 'will be able to easily install the Windows 9 update after downloading it from Microsoft'. A Microsoft UK spokesperson told PCR it cannot confirm or deny Diantoro’s statement. However,
Microsoft’s Windows event will be held tomorrow where the full details of Windows 9 are expected to be revealed. This news comes after a
series of images and videos were leaked seemingly displaying the Windows 9 Start menu and desktop.
