Microsoft previously announced that users of Windows 7 and higher will be eligible to upgrade to Windows 10 for free when it ships in about a month. But today, the Windows team announced via the Windows blog that Microsoft will be giving away Windows 10 for free to users of Windows 10 Preview.
That's right. Even if you're on an older version of Windows, like XP, just go and install Windows 10 Technical Preview now, and when Windows 10 comes out, you'll be prompted for the full, free upgrade.
It was previously noted that the free upgrade wouldn't be available to those using Windows XP and older, but now it's easy to get your free ticket through the door.
Good move, Microsoft.
