I won't give a definitive 'No!' but traditionally the Personal version
has not been eligible for upgrades - the aim was always to sell a price
low enough to induce new users, so there was never much of a margin to
cut for an upgrade.

I think there may be been some previous versions where the Personal
could be upgraded to the professional SKU of the same product, at a
reasonable discount, but no so much it would compete with buying just
for an upgrade!

I don't know the policy on BDS2006 though.
