Act
Quickly to Get A Deal on Windows 7 |
By Ira Wilsker

APCUG member groups.
 In case you have not heard, Microsoft is about to release a new
operating system intended to replace Vista, and the almost phased
out XP. This new operating system is known as Windows 7, and
preliminary reviews indicate that it is far superior in most aspects
to Vista, and as stable as XP. While the new Windows 7 will not be
in full release or installed on new computers until this fall,
Microsoft is offering a short term deal for those who would like to
pre-order Windows 7. Anyone interested in partaking of this deal
where Microsoft will sell Windows 7 with deep discounts must
act quickly, as
the promotion will end on July
11.
Microsoft and select retailers are offering the pre-order of Windows
7 Professional for $99.99, which will have a retail price of $319.99
when officially released. Windows 7 Home Premium is available on
pre-order for $49.99, and will sell for retail price of $199.99 when
officially released. Locally, the offer should be available at Best
Buy, Sam’s Club, Walmart, and Office Depot, and online from Amazon
and other stores, and directly from Microsoft Stores. The projected
delivery date for the pre-ordered copies of Windows 7 is October 22.
