For users with laptops and desktops running Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, a digital upgrade to Windows 8 Pro will cost $40 if downloaded before Jan. 31, 2013, according to a fresh post on the Microsoft Windows blog. That's the price to download Windows 8 Pro and install it without an actual physical copy of the download; Microsoft will also mail you a DVD version of Windows 8 for backup purposes for an extra $15 plus shipping and handling. Upgrades to Pro will also have the option to add the Windows Media Center program to their download for free.
If buying over the internet isn't your thing, customers can choose to purchase Windows 8 Pro in stores for $70. These prices are apparently only good through Jan. 31 and will increase after that date.
