Just found out that I would require a "Vaio Win8 Upgrade Kit" to upgrade my Vaio "vgn-fz21z" from Win7-32 upgraded from WinVista-32. Anyone know when this kit will be available or if available for my laptop?
System requirements for my Vaio are ok for upgrading to Win8Pro-32, hence the problem lies with Sony support for providing an upgrade kit! I read the article about eligible notebooks etc. I don't think anyone with a notebook with the basic system requirements to upgrade to Win8Pro-32 is going to buy a new laptop for £250+ just for Win8Pro experience where the upgrade is around £25+ when downloaded from Microsoft!
This is a great hinderance with proprietary hardware where updates cease at the first sight of a new o/s.
I suppose my Win8Pro-32 upgrade disc will gather dust on the shelf until Sony decides to make available a "Vaio Win8 Upgrade Kit" ~ whenever this happens?
