Ignore this price

When you close the report window and click Next, you'll be prompted to choose what you'll want to keep and the wizard will recommend which version of Windows 8 you should choose. However, this screen and the next are superfluous as the Windows 8 Upgrade Offer only allows you to download Windows 8 Pro. When you proceed, you'll be prompted to review your order. As you can see this page lists the cost as $39.99 and gives you the option of ordering a DVD for an additional $14.99. You can ignore this price and disregard the DVD offer, as the promo code will reduce the cost and you'll be able to burn your own DVD in a moment.
