I've never had the need to use it one a Windows 98 OS, does it not install/work?

You can buy Windows 7 Premium for AUD$50 if your a student (well in Australia you can, some other countries cost a little more) http://www.microsoft.com/australia/wind ... grade.aspx

clearly i paid too much for my legit version of Win7... I thought that getting Ultimate would give me a lot of extra features, though there's barely any difference between premium and ultimate.

I do have a spare laptop that could use an upgraded operating system, might just do the above
