Windows 7 Half-Price Sale Starts Friday
U.S. shoppers who pre-order between June 26th and July 11th will receive discounts
of 50% or more, Microsoft said. For instance, Windows 7 Home Premium will sell for
$49 during the discount period, while Windows 7 Professional will sell for $99.
Participating retailers include Best Buy and Amazon, as well as Microsoft's own
online store.
In a further effort to boost sales, Microsoft on Thursday disclosed an upgrade
program through which consumers who purchase a Vista-powered PC can migrate to
Windows 7 at little or no cost when the latter becomes available on Oct. 22.
