Windows 7 limited time upgrade discount starting tomorrow (June 26th)
tomos:
well I dont know how long the windows 7 offer lasted here in germany - but certainly less than 17 hours ;)
I forgot about it (I think they were all in deutsch though and the UK offer seems to be still running)
Dormouse:
Ebuyer sold out very quickly; Home much faster than Pro.
Amazon kept switching from having it on sale, to not, to having just one (Home or Pro) back to none or both. (Has both available atm). Has stated that sales in first 8 hours exceeded the whole of the 17 week Vista pre-order period.
Play.com has had both all the time (but at full price unlike the two above).
The others I checked didn't have any for sale at all that I saw, though I didn't check often.
I'm OK ;D
wr975:
in germany as of 15 july until the middle of august - or until supplies run out [whatever that means] you can get Windows 7 Home Premium E for 49.99 euros

Until middle of August? I've to agree with Carol. This is truly a marketing scam.
Amazon Germany sold out in 7 minutes. :tellme:
Apparently they just got 1500 copies to sell. Another German dealer got the same amount. Others less.
Carol Haynes:
Apparently Amazon UK have pre-sold more copies of Windows 7 during the first 8 hours than they did with Windows Vista during the whole pre-sale period.
Not sure how many people have 'booked' copies though. I have booked 2 copies of Pro but I may change my mind before October if I get an early download of the RTM copy via MS MAPS programme.
