So after Vista is officially released, what happens to us beta-testers? Will
I be able to just purchase a key and be set? My point is, I'm running RC1 now
and I'd like to start to migrate stuff from XP, but that would be pointless
if (when it's released) I have to go buy a Vista disk and format everything
over again. Being able to jsut upgrade from the betas immediately to the full
release version would be stellar. Anybody have any info on this??

Thanks.
 
I am not 100% sure, but I would hope you would be able to purchase the full version DVD and run an upgrade from RC1.

Don't count on upgrading from RC1 to the release version. With past versions
of Windows this sometimes worked but was usually not a supported
configuration.
 
There is always a possibility of saving a backup and then importing it with
all settings as well once you install Full version.
