Are you sure that I will be getting a proper licence key? I am not sure. Secondly, I can make installable DVD's right? So that can help me in installing it my other partition. Then I will be able to dual boot.

you will get the key the moment you pay 699, also you can do a clean install or upgrade . if you want a DVD you'll have to pay rs 1020 ..but can save ISO

you get those options after the download is complete. you get three options "Install now" or "Install by creating media" or "Install later from desktop".

Seems like quite a few have gone for the upgrade option. Guys one more thing. What is the difference between the RTM version and this upgrade version or the retail version as one may call it.

choose "Install by creating media", then you will get the option's "USB flash drive" or "ISO file", choose ISO file. and I don't know about the bit version, since I'm upgrading from win 7 64bit I think it automatically chooses win 8 64bit. If you're buying for Rs 1999 you might get to choose bit version during checkout.

what is the size of ISO? I am also using 64bit windows 7 home premium right now. I think it's automatically installs 64bit in a 64bit system.
