No need to yell.

Here's the KB article that show what products qualify for the upgrade--

Call Microsoft and ask for a bypass key if you own a qualifying product.
You can press them that you had Works on a previous computer if you say
that computer is now destroyed. Otherwise, the software and licenses still
exist for it if it was sold, given away etc. It's all in the way you
present your case.
