    Looks like £54.99-£59.99 for home premium then. Not too bad

    I'd say more like £72..

    I don't think Newegg puts tax on until you buy.

    (100/1.6)*1.15=72

    More importantly, doesn't this say something about MS's pricing structure? Why should the majority of users pay for support they never use? MS should just scrap these pricing levels and simply sell customer support as a value added service on a premium rate number or as an optional extra alongside the retail versions.

    I have just checked and it looks like the Windows 7 OEM versions are going to be the same price thier equivilent Vista versions (sorry).

    It looks like you are better off trying to grab it at the pre order price.

    I agree who actually gets support from ms?
    most people get support from friends or a local tech.
