The pre-order offer for Windows 7 Home Premium for £49.99 is a limited time offer and will run 'while supplies last' in addition to a similar pre-order offer for Windows 7 Professional (which will be available on pre-order at £99.99 on 15 July). 'We will continue to look at and monitor the situation and see what we can do, but the full version pricing is £149.99,' we were informed by Microsoft. So, we asked the Windows 7 rep, will UK consumers pay the full £149.99 after 1 January 2010? 'The intent is that we are working in the best interests of consumers and users within the UK,' says Curran, adding that it is a 'comparable price to anyone else that will be upgrading around the world.' While the full RRP for Windows 7 Home Premium is £149.99, from launch (22 October) through to 31 December 2009, UK PC users will be able to pick up a copy of Microsoft's new OS for £79.99. It is, Curran assures us, the 'fastest global launch of a Windows Operating System ever.' Secondly, at launch on 22 October, Windows 7 will be 'available that day in 14 languages around the world and in the remaining languages around the world on October 31-35 languages in total,' Curran informed TechRadar. Windows 7 releases globally on 22 October and there will be a 'limit of 25 PCs per person or small business for the upgrade program.'įor more on that offer head over to and for more details on the £49.99 pre-order deal check out (opens in new tab)
