[desiibond]

anyways, let's see if MS gives Home Basic for windows 7 too.

Whatever anybody says about the price, it being high or low is not something which is as significant as it was when Windows 98 was released.

In today's era, Freedom of choice FTW!

 

[desiibond]

oh yes. that is the reason for lot of Vista editions.

Home basic to Ultimate

BTW, does anyone remember the price of Windows 95 or windows 98??

Unfortunately not all are smart enough to decide which is right for them. They just buy what their system builder tells them or sells them.

BTW, does anyone remember the price of Windows 95 or windows 98??

No idea. But Windows 95 and 98 were the true monopoly days of MS. Absolutely no alternative that was as advanced. By Windows XP apple started catching up and by XP SP1 linux started catching up and by vista windows had very very strong competition.

Found it.

*www.vistaultimate.com/windows95.htm

release price: 70$ to 90$. (FDs and CDROM respectively)

windows 98: $100 to $200!!

Update:

if you buy Vista from any of the following, you are going to get a DVD of widnows 7 for free in october:

1) Microsoft store USA
2) Dell
3) HP

Toshiba, Fujitsu, Acer, Lenovo too may join the brigade. Asus on the other hand will charge nominal fee.

I called one windows dealer and he says it's not going to come till February. ROFLMAO.

 

[Krazy_About_Technology]

Eh! Are you people going mad?? They haven't yet announced the pricing in India. Its for other countries But ya, HP is most probably going to be around 4K coz Vista HP was also priced in this range.

 

[desiibond]

Windows 7 RC will release after some days. So how come those torrent shits have full versions. The final version has not released yet. I will call the final release only a full version

BTW, searching google with keyword windows 7 full gives me this links at first

1. *windows7full.com/ - yup this is great one - just check it out . It's basically a forum dedicated to windows 7 & I think it's a legal one.

 

[swordfish]

desibond, can it be upgraded from vista home edition?

 

[desiibond]

yes. from home premium.

 

[topgear]

Thanks god! I've vista home premium x64 & yes it's a legit one

Mac OS X is kinda different, though it still may be OS X, every release has a lot more features and service packs don't add much features. Leopard: 300+ additions for $29
