Are you still running Wiindows 2000, NT 4.0 or 98SE operating system in
your office and need more PC's with the same? Unfortunately, you won't
find any new PC's with these operating systems—Microsoft stopped
installing these OS's last summer. Don't worry--we have an even better
solution for you. A new PC installed with Microsoft Windows XP
Professional will let you "downgrade" to one of these previous OS
versions so your office can continue to run on the same Win 2000, NT 4.0
or 98SE operating system. Later, when you decide you want to run Windows
XP Pro, just reinstall it. This is all FREE when you buy a new PC with
Windows XP Pro preinstalled. Microsoft calls this "Downgrade Rights" and
you'll automatically have them with a new Systemax PC installed with
Windows XP Pro.
Microsoft Downgrade Rights allow you to purchase a new PC loaded with
Windows XP Professional but downgrade and use Windows 2000, NT 4.0 or
98SE operating system on your new PC. When you are ready to do so, you
have the ability to upgrade back to Windows XP Professional at any time
in the future.
Windows NT and Windows 98 are no longer preinstalled on PC's. Downgrade
Rights provide companies that are not currently able to migrate to a
more current operating system the ability to use the company�s preferred
OS until there is a more efficient time to migrate. When the company is
ready to migrate to Windows XP Pro, there are no additional costs or
licensing requirements.
Flexibility - Purchase Windows XP Professional loaded on a PC today and
use a previous operating system version until you are ready to migrate
to Windows XP Professional.
Save Money - Invest in Windows XP Professional today and use multiple
operating systems for the price of one.
