    Hey,
    I almost got the express upgrade, except that shipping would cost 68.00 CAD.
    ouch.
    Just wanted to see how much this upgrade cost everyone else out of pocket, and if you felt it was worth it.

    Let me know. Im sure theres other people wanting to know, too. :)

    Hi,
    we just submitted our request for a vista upgrade. It was $68 for us as well. when we saw the price, we thought twice, but decided it was cheaper than buying an upgrade for 299.

    I would like to know why it cost $68 to send out a DVD though?

    David

    p.s. we haven't received it yet, so i cant tell you if it was worth it yet!

    Lucy you,
    I didn’t manage to get my upgrade yet due to a bug in there website. I phoned Microsoft agent in my country, emailed LG & Microsoft many times but no use.
    5 days remaining and the clock is ticking…

    If anyone interested, my problem is when I enter the country (USA, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UK << at least thus I know about) and choose LG as my manufacture, when I reach the step where I'm suppose to choose which windows I'm using I notice that the slide list is empty, therefore I can't finish the process of applying on line…
