Until now, British consumers were not enjoying the FamilyPack of Windows 7. This pack allows a user to install Windows 7 on three computers in the same household. As there was a tussle going on between EU and Microsoft over the pre-installation of the internet explorer web-browser, the launch was delayed. Previously, the company was compelled to sell copies of Windows 7 without pre-installed internet explorer.
But now with all the tussle is over, Microsoft is about to launch it’s home pack in European union countries making it possible for the British customers to buy the multi-license family pack. The sale will start from October 22. The family pack will be priced at £150. If you buy separately the three all copies of Windows 7, the cost will be higher than this.
Try to be the first one to grab the pack. You may miss it as Microsoft has warned that this pack will be available in limited quantities.
Microsoft has given a hint that upgraded editions of Windows 7 may also be available in UK. Users who are already using Windows Vista on their machines can upgrade their OS to home premium which will be priced at £79.99. You can upgrade to professional version for £189.99 and ultimate version for £199.99.
On the other hand, Apple launches its new operating system, Snow Leopard, on Friday. It will just cost £25 for existing users to upgrade and the FamilyPack of snow Leopard is available at £39.
