1, 2, 3, 7!

Win7_01

Win7_02Today is a big day for Windows fans. The final milestone in Windows 7 development process has been reached and the new operating system is general available.

Just two years passed since the release of Vista and many say that Windows 7 should be just a “super-service pack” for Vista.

If you are not a MS Partner and you don’t have a MSDN/TechNet Subscription then this is the first time you can get Windows 7 non-trial. Many shops already started to sale and deliver copies of W7 – got few mail in the morning with special offers.

The prices on Amazon are:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium (Retail/Upgrade): $199.99/$119.99
  • Windows 7 Professional (Retail/Upgrade): $299.99/$199.99
  • Windows 7 Ultimate (Retail/Upgrade): $319.99/$219.99

And now two funny things: on Amazon you have “2 Used and new” copies of Windows 7. I wonder who has a used copy of W7 that has just been released :)

The image on the right I found it on Larry Osterman’s blog.
