Is the $39.99 upgrade offer the same as the retail upgrade in that the license has unlimited transfers? Keep in mind I will be upgrading from a full retail version of Windows 7.

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Windows 8 Upgrade. We're glad to hear that you're interested in Windows 8 Pro.

The license for the $14.99 Windows 8 Pro Upgrade (for new Windows 7 PC purchased between June 2, 2012 and January 31, 2013) and $39.99 Windows 8 Pro Upgrade (for older PCs running older Windows versions) are non-transferable.

Directly from Microsoft. I guess I'm purchasing the retail upgrade.
