<br>
Is this a true statement? I'm thinking it's not.<br>
<br>
"you must have a license ... be able to upgrade normally to 8.x"<br>
<br>
There is even a bridged upgrade feature, which lets you upgrade on<br>
unsupported hardware, the service will never start, but you can then take a<br>
backup, and restore onto supported hardware.<br>
<br>
Unless you actually plan to run on 7x for a few days, then upgrade to 8x<br>
later, I don't think you need a 7x license. Just go from 4 to 7 to 8 in one<br>
swoop, only licensing 8.<br>
