Microsoft confirms rumored Windows 7 'Family Pack'

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 22 Jul 2009 2:54 User comments (9)

Earlier this month the online retailer Expercom leaked the price of the much anticipated Windows 7 Family Pack, the pack that includes three licenses for Windows 7 Home Premium.

The leak said the price would be $137 USD for the three-license pack.

Today, Microsoft confirmed the Family Pack is coming, but neglected to give a price.

If the leaked price is true, the Family Pack will be a significant discount from the standard price, which is $100 USD per license.

And, will it be 1/2 price for pre-sale upgrade like the single licenses are?

Here's hoping they discount those of us that have pre-ordered already.

Heres a thought 90/140$(home/premium) a winXP/vista upgrade and 15/200(home/premium) bucks outright for 3 pc keys, then 60$ for a key by itself, MS you would print money hand over fist instead of the normal and weak anal diving of this BS....

No matter what the price will be it will be inflated regardless.

Of course, what this article fails to mention is that this is the "upgrade" version. This time, though, there doesn't sound like there will be too much of a difference.

	Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing. 1 user comment
	Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
