    £149*

    *Actual retail prices may vary

    Is this just PC World trying to pre-empt/influence MS into releasing the family pack in Europe, I'd heard it was planned to be US only?

    I believe MS have officially reported that the Family Pack will be available in the UK now that the tit for tat arguaments with those Euro Beanies in Brussels have been resolved.
