I can't recall any other vendor giving its customers barely 2 weeks
to place orders. To what can we attribute this? Does M$ need the
money that bad? Are they doing this for their own personal amusement?
Are they trying to keep ahead of the product reviews? Why? Why? Why?
"The full version of Windows 7 Home Premium is priced at $199, with
an upgrade from Vista or XP costing $119. The full version of Windows
7 Professional is $299, with upgrades going for $199. Windows 7
Ultimate is priced at $319, with the upgrade version at $219."
"But U.S. shoppers who pre-order between June 26th and July 11th will
receive discounts of 50% or more, Microsoft said. For instance,
Windows 7 Home Premium will sell for $49 during the discount period,
while Windows 7 Professional will sell for $99. Participating
retailers include Best Buy and Amazon, as well as Microsoft's own
online store."
