What specifically is changing about the Volume Licensing Windows desktop upgrade CDs?
A. Microsoft is removing the full Windows desktop operating system bits from the CDs in the standard Volume Licensing Welcome Kits and Comprehensive Kits. Under the Volume License agreements, customers will now receive CDs that include upgrade bits instead. Full desktop operating system bits will still be available to Enterprise Agreement and Select License customers through Web download or by ordering a CD.
