I just did this with my Windows Home Premium. I have a retail Ultimate key that I was using on a laptop that I don't have anymore, so I upgraded my new laptop from Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate. I clicked start and typed in Windows Anytime Upgrade, opened the program and followed instructions. When it asked for my key I typed in the Ultimate key and clicked next, agreed to this and that and Windows did its thing. It upgraded in a very short time with 2 reboots and I was using ultimate in about 10 minutes. I didn't even need my Ultimate DVD.
