+Microsoft has [posted a reminder][1] for those brave souls that are still using Windows Vista Beta 2, RC1, and RC2 -- it's time to upgrade to the final version. On May 31 pre-release versions of Windows Vista will expire. After that time the pre-release versions will reboot every two hours.
+
+If you're still using one of the early version Microsoft will send notifications reminding you to upgrade starting May 18.
+
+The upgrade process is a bit convoluted but a [handy table on the Microsoft bulletin][1] breaks down your options. 
+
+Users of Beta 2 will need to do a clean install regardless of the final release version they decide to use. 
+
+Those with Windows RC1 have the option to upgrade in place provided they upgrade to Vista Ultimate.
+
+Curiously, users of RC2 must also do a clean install. Microsoft doesn't appear offer any comment on why the upgrade in place option is available to RC1 users and not RC2.
+
+Pricing for Windows Vista Upgrades [range from $100 - $260][2] depending on the version you choose.
