- Fill out the Registration Form on the web site.
- You will receive an email message. Click the link in the email to go to the purchase site.
- On the purchase page, be sure to click on the link that says "Need to join your school's network domain? You can also get Windows 7 Professional for $29.99. Click here" in order to see the option to purchase the Professional version.
