You get an upgrade key but like any other Windows 7 upgrade key you can do a full install and then use one of the legit workarounds to activate it: <http://www.winsupersite.com/article/win7/clean-install-windows-7-with-upgrade-media.aspx>

Students only? Wonder what proof they want to verify that. I checked out the site and saw this:

While anyone with a valid, licensed copy of Windows XP or Vista qualifies for any Upgrade version of Windows 7--only Vista users can do an in-place upgrade ... Is this process bulletproof? I'm not sure yet, but I think so. In any event, here's a checklist of things to try, in order from least painful to most painful.

Gives me pause to ponder if I wanna give it a go on one of my pcs. Anyway, appreciate the tip.
