Win 8 upgrade - the user can cause dual boot using the same license?

Hello

Thanks to MS for offers updated Win 7 for win 8 to 14.99 USD for all new buyers of Win 7 PC after June, 2012.

I'm one of the eligible candidates for the upgrade at this price. However, I spent a lot of time, money and effort to put in place the Win 7 OS so that he could function at an optimal level I want.

My understanding of an upgrade to win 8 is to lose everything I have Win 7 and replace the entire operating system to win 8 via a download from the MS. Download Center

The problem is that I don't know if Win 8 is what I like and not sure if it is better than Windows 7. Reinstallation of Win 7 back takes time and effort.

Do I know if the user can install Win 8 to another partition primary drive c during the upgrade, retaining the original Win7 (same license) to the other partition?

If this is the case, it would be a great bonus for the new buyer of Win 7 PC, otherwise the user need to spend more money to buy to win a CD of Installation of 8 at the store and install t to separate partition.

Thank you

You can dual boot with the free upgrade, so that you upgrade to the eligible license, in this case Windows 7. If you want to dual boot Windows 7 and Windows 8, you must buy the full version license, what is Windows 8 Pro for use staff system
