Windows 7 Prices

[Juztin]

Microsoft has now released the prices for Windows 7.

Customers who buy a computer with Vista installed on it between Friday 26th June and Thursday 22nd October will receive a FREE update to Windows 7.

In Australia, the Home Premium version of Windows 7 will cost $299, the Professional version will be $449 and the Ultimate version comes with a price tag of $469. Compare all of this to Apples new Snow Leopard OS, coming in at a massive US$29!!!

There is no pre-order options available, where as in the US customers can pre-order the new OS with a special pre-order discount of 50% off all versions.

For those who can afford it, Windows 7 will hit shelves in Australian on Friday 22nd of October.

Ill wait for OEM prices.

Wont be buying it until my RC licence runs out, but ****ed if Im ever going back to XP or Vista.

 

[MudBlood]

I totally agree with Tom, Vista and XP are now no longer in my thoughts when reformatting any of my families PC's. By that time it comes out as OEM There will be someone needing an upgrade allowing me to get more and more OEM versions to cover the machines I Manage..
