I purchased my retail Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (both digital download and disc backup) for $42.99 from Microsoft Corporation. It is a offer for college students. It will expired soon later in January 20, 2010.

I am happy with Windows 7 more than Windows Vista or XP.

I paid $29.99 for Windows 7 Professional 32-bit at win741.com.

Also, as Deathpit said for the backup disc as well it's $42.99.

**JClarke** · 01-02-2010, 09:20 PM

I paid mine Window 7 Professional for $49.99 as an college student as well

money well spent!

**Jiro** · 01-02-2010, 09:21 PM

LMAO. Good luck with find a college friend! Windows 7 is worthy to pay for. Why bother yourself with being cheapskate?

$29.99. I haven't installed it yet. I think it's Ultimate Pro. And I can get another copy for about $25 (disk).

For you Jiro I'll make you a deal ... $174.99.

I got W7 Ultimate full version for $65 from TrustPay JSC and they gave a downloadable link from Microsoft one day later.

It was worthy!

I noticed this link via australia. This cost is price plus VAT but TrustPay is not needing to add it when I had purchased.

Jiro...

Call Microsoft Customer Service and tell them your dog ate Windows 7, and you'll get second free copy. PRICELESS!

And to think they would actually believe that? There are strict policies, you know?
