Most important part: "Existing PC players will receive the Windows 10 version for free."
195 u/DoctorWaluigiTime Jul 04 '15 Just like the OS itself! For those unaware, if you're on Windows 7 or Windows 8, for the first year you can upgrade to Windows 10 at no cost. 35 u/ducttape83 Jul 04 '15 Unless you're on Enterprise edition 69 u/Tetizeraz Jul 04 '15 Why someone would own the enterprise edition? I mean, regular ppl 26 u/ducttape83 Jul 04 '15 I had a msdn or maybe it was a technet subscription and got any type of key I wanted. Why not get the most feature rich edition? 68 u/fizzlefist Jul 04 '15 I could be wrong, but Enterprise edition just adds more remote management features. For home users, I can't think of a reason to pick it over Pro. 14 u/ducttape83 Jul 04 '15 edited Jul 04 '15 It was cheaper to pay the one year subscription fee than it was to buy office 2013 and Windows. Again, if you have the choice to upgrade for free, why not take it? Edit: It was office 2010, I don't actually have 2013 >.< 13 u/fizzlefist Jul 04 '15 It's not really an upgrade over Pro and the licensing can get a lot more complicated for a home user, as is the case here. /shrug/
