Vista Upgrade

OEMs will likely start to move TPMs into the consumer space in the coming quarters, with some level of specific focus and promotion. Wavexpress has an integration of the TPM support in TV Tonic and Wavexpress is included with Media Center machines in the Microsoft media services suite. With the premium versions of Vista requiring TPMs and including Media Center in the OS, Wave should have a good entre into the consumer related systems as they get introduced.

So how does the OEM expect a consumer up grade to Vista Ultimate from a lower version of Vista if the PC does not contain a TPM?
