RE: Australian prices of windows7?
At the very least I would have thought they would have put into place the preorder discount like they did in the US.
The prices aren't too far off vistas, but yeah they are really inflated when compared to the rest of the world. I have vista ultimate now, but there is not a chance in hell I will get the win 7 equivalent.
The savings of upgrade vs retail get pretty crap towards the high end of the scale.
Home Premium Upgrade: $199
Home Premium Retail: $299
Saving: $100
Professional Upgrade: $399
Professional Retail: $449
Saving: $50
Ultimate Upgrade: $429
Ultimate Retail: $469
Saving: $40
It can get pretty ridiculous when you have more than one computer in the house (which most people do).
I am hoping that they make the Home Premium family pack available here in Australia, would save me a bit. Otherwise I will just get Home Premium on just my main computer. Screw Ultimate.
