Then we must wait 1 year to have Windows 10 Full version in DVD? Many people have Windows 7 on older hardware. I believe those will not want to upgrade. Windows 10 upgrade makes sense for people who have Windows 8 machines with latest hardware. So people will maybe buy new machines to run Windows 10. And that's OEM version, without backup. That's why I want Full version DVD, to install as many times I need.

That's why I want Full version DVD, to install as many times I need. It is too early for idle speculation. Ask the question in September 2015, when RTM is released. There will be more information then. At a bare minimum, the MSDN subscription site will have a Win10 RTM DVD posted on it. That will be downloaded by paying subscribers, then transferred to BitTorrent for users such as yourself. The transfer by BitTorrent is not done by Microsoft employees. It is done by paying subscribers to MSDN. They do the "illegal upload" and you profit. When you download such a DVD (in Septemter, over BitTorrent), you must use SHA1SUM to verify the authenticity of the DVD image (malware check). Since Windows 7 users will receive Win10 Upgrade, a mechanism must exist to help them. That is your best hope in terms of a more accessible upgrade mechanism. If only Windows 8 users needed to be supported, the delivery mechanisms could be a lot more restrictive. Wait until September, and whatever means is used to help Windows 7 users, may indirectly answer your query. Paul |

That's a 5 months gap without Windows. |
