]]> A very important information has just been revealed: Windows 7 OEM pricing. And why is it important? Simply because this money will make the difference when you try to buy a laptop with Windows 7 included.

We’ve talked before about the Windows 7 pricing, so here’s a quick reference to compare it with OEM:


 Full Upgrade OEM
Home Premium $ 200 $ 120 $ 110
Professional $ 300 $ 200 $ 140
Ultimate $ 320 $ 220 $ 190

OEM pricing it is extremely important to computer builders, and of course users. But there are some considerations:

  • OEM versions are only licensed to one machine. Period. You don’t get the chance to use the same license on a separate machine, even if you don’t have it installed in the original machine.
  • Also is required for OEM, clean installations of the operating system. You cannot upgrade any existing installation, you must clean your hard drive first.

Even though the pricing has only been revealed for three versions, we assume that these versions (Home Premium, Professional and Ultimate) will be the selected ones for any computer manufacturer to use. Specially the Home Premium version (yes, I know, I do not like it either).

]]> windows-7-boxThere has been a lot of speculation about this for a long time, but Microsoft announced officially the pricing that is related with Windows 7 in retail and upgrade versions. And guess what? It will be cheaper than Vista.

The difference isn’t all that much with the original pricing in Vista, but still the operating system is different and I’m sure you won’t regret the money invested in this OS as you may regretted with Vista. Here’s the detailed pricing:

Retail Versions

  • Windows 7 Home Premium – $199.99 – [Vista Home Premium - $249.99]
  • Windows 7 Professional – $299.99
  • Windows 7 Ultimate – $319.99 – [Vista Ultimate - $319.99]

Upgrade Versions

  • Windows 7 Professional $199.99
  • Windows 7 Ultimate – $219.99 – [Vista Ultimate - $219.99]

But wait, there’s more. There are some more good news about pre-ordering Windows 7 and getting 50% discount over the pricing mentioned above.
