i bought my fiancee a laptop and didnt notice that is only has windows 7 starter on it and i would like to upgrade to windows 7 home premium. My predicament is that it is a mini laptop, a laptop with no cd/dvd/blu ray drive. I know i can upgrade for around $70 but i have absolutely no idea how that would work with no dvd drive. anybody got any ideas?

thanks :)

You can download the anytime upgrade from Microsoft, and then install it without having to burn it to a dvd http://store.microsoft.com/mic.....up_default
