    ATTN all US college people, do like windows 7? Well I don't care, at $30/£30 you could re-sell your key if you really wanted to. I how ever think I will upgrade.

    P.S. I know $30 != £30, UK has to pay twice as much

    Requirements:
    You must be in the USA (UK Students have to wait until October, other countries October 22nd)

    You must go to a real college and have a college e-mail

    Product Details:
    Windows 7 Home Premium Edition
    Estimated Retail value of $119

    --System Requirements
    1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
    1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
    16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
    DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

    Fuck you all.

    I want windows 7 for that cheap D:

    Although, I'm probably getting W7 Home Prem for around £64.

    Also, if it's $30, that would mean the UK equiv is probably around £17.

    Actuially, thinking about it, if this offer applies to highschools in the UK, I may be able to use my sisters email to get a cheap copy.

    When did you say this:

    When getting kicked out of your college.

    Didn't say they were sado's, said they're silly for getting into a life of debt.

    Just noticed the link sleepy provided is US only, therefore there's a chance that I can still get it cheaper by my sister, because my old highschool had a connection with msdn i think.

    I was waiting for someone to say something like that...

    I mean seriously people, just get find a non virus ridden torrent, and burn it to a CD!

    I really can't believe you people haven't done that already.

    The only thing you lose by doing that is the crappy Mexican service provided by Microsoft... :meh:
