Windows 7 pricing..

Published by fareez under Experience

Windows 7 Pricing Details Announced by windows7center today..

The long awaited Windows 7 prices announcement are here. Today, Microsoft announced the prices for Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate editions. The good news is that the most popular SKU edition, Home Premium, has been significantly discounted from its Vista predecessor. Unfortunately, the pricing for the higher SKUs remain the same.

Upgrade Pricing

Windows 7 Home Premium – $119.99 – difference from vista version – $10 (8%)
Windows 7 Professional $199.99
Windows 7 Ultimate – $219.99 – difference from vista version – $0
Retail (Full) Pricing

Windows 7 Home Premium – $199.99 – difference from vista version – $50 (23%)
Windows 7 Professional – $299.99
Windows 7 Ultimate – $319.99 – difference from vista version – $0
However, Microsoft is offering an amazing pre-order offer that is difficult to refuse. If you are a resident of the US, Canada, or Japan, you can pre-order Windows 7 Home Premium and Professional at half the price from June 26th till July11th (July 5th in Japan). If you’re in the UK, France, or Germany, you can get the same deal from July 15th till August 14th. You can also pre-order the upgrade editions online from retailers like Amazon and Best buy. Home Premium Upgrade will cost $49.99 ($70.00 savings) and Professional Upgrade will cost $99.99 ($100 savings).

“What if I’m getting a new PC?!” If you buy a new PC from June 26th, 2009 to January 31st, 2010, you will receive a Windows 7 Upgrade Option Coupon to receive a FREE copy of the corresponding Windows 7 version of the Windows Vista version installed on your computer. This Upgrade Program is globally, and you do not need to pay for shipping and handling. Although the majority of retailers should be offering the coupon for free, Microsoft has stated that some retailers will decide to offer it at “little” cost. Pricing for an Electronic upgrade via Windows Anytime Upgrade, has not yet been announced and hopefully will be soon.

A mother’s love
Is always true
It’s all you need
To get you through

A mother’s love
Can seem like hate
She’s only tough
To keep you safe

A mother’s love
Is always there
In simple ways
She’ll show she cares

A mother’s love
Can never compare
With anyone else’s
Anywhere

A mother’s love
Is here to stay
I love you, mom
Happy Mother’s Day!

Windows 7

Published by fareez under Experience

I have been testing it for almost 4 months, so far soooo good.. im really love the new windows, its new feature, stability. in fact, aside from my laptop and desktop, I have also try it in acer aspire 5550, and lenovo y450 . Windows 7 run smoothly without any problem aside driver, well it will take some time for manufacture to update their hardware driver, but VISTA driver is still compatible with seven, you can install any hardware using vista driver if the windows didnt detect the hardware. for my desktop, I only have to install driver for my webcam, other driver is already installed. games? I played Red Alert 3 at Garena without any problem… others games too..

latest news, windows 7 build 7100 which is the release candidate (RC) is out in p2p network, both 32 and 64bit.. just try it, I bet after try it, you guys will never wanna use either vista or xp, it happen to me, im so in loved with windows 7 ?:P.. ? ? ? but always remember to backup all your files first before installing new windows :)
