Holy smokes, someone from Microsoft just tweeted a Tweet that has everyone jumping around like they just don’t care! The tweet reads: “Good things are worth the wait… http://bit.ly/win741 will go live soon with all the details of the $29.99 deal. ^MS” What does that mean?!
Officially, we have no idea what Microsoft is talking about, so we’ll be refreshing that Web site over and over again just like everyone else.
It’s Windows 7 Home Premium for college students, or, more accurately, anyone with a .edu address. I graduated last year, but it just said my e-mail address qualifies. Hooray!
It’s a $29.99 copy of Win7 Home Premium for students…
This is just what I needed for my netbook!
bootleg it free @ http://thepiratebay.org/search/windows%207%20ultimate/0/99/0
Is it the upgrade version of Win7 Home Premium or the full version?
On the windows box they show it as the Upgrade. Also in the FAQ it shows that it is retail and not academic software.
Good thing, that I got Professional for free as a student… :P
Sucks that to add the DVD it is $13 more – still a good deal though.
Did anyone get the email???
We all signed up and got the confirmation e-mail. I didn’t actually buy the OS, though. I’ll wait for a rainy day.
I did – it took quite a while though.
Humm, can you say Microsoft following Apples lead. Bye-Bye MicroCrap! Apple is kicking your ass!
this is why competition is so important. Microsoft can learn from Apple… and yes… apple can learn from Microsoft… It is good to have business compete with each other. Or you could be like Mike G and get all Apple religious when Microsoft betters itself because it learned from Apple.
Coming from XP going over OSx86 and Ubuntu then, I just installed Win 7 Professional for free from a student program a few days ago, and all I can say is it blows me away. AWESOME!
Bull crap theres still no reason to pay 29.99 when you can bootleg it for free. bill gates has enough money so bootleg all his shit
oh and to add on to my last comment, no point of home editions just go for the ultimate, its not like its gonna cost anything if you know what your doing
