Student? Want Windows 7 for £/$30?

[Camel]

You may be eligible for a discount price on windows 7 if you have a .ac.uk email address in the UK. Or a .edu/ other educational institute email address in the US.

 

If you have the above, go here for the UK site or here for the US site to see if you are eligible for a discount price on Windows 7.

 

You can choose from Home premium or professional. Both 32 and 64bit versions.

 

The pre-orders will be available for download on the 22nd October.

 

Personally I think £30 for the UK and £30 for the US is a great deal. Especially on the Pro version. I have already pre-ordered mine. :)

Ace! i've just entered my college address and although it isn't a uni it said it was eligible! Bonus!

[iBilo]

My school email address has to be verified :(

[Camel]

Yea, they send an email to your college/uni email address. I can login into mine using outlook on my laptop.

[iBilo]

Gotta wait 1-2 weeks for an email to see if I'm egilbile.

Good deal, couple of my friends are doing this. Already ordered my copy though, did it ages ago when it was about £45 with selected retailers. No point in cancelling really. ;)

[Who]

right, got the email to my college, i'll get it when i get cash paid into my bank

[Pherelas]

Right, might just have to do that. Love student discounts! £3, money of clubs and now this, though it really has just cost me £30 I wouldn't have spent.

 

Ok just had a look and is there any point? There is nothing new really, looks a bit different, its just vista that works. Rip off, should be a service pack.

Before you start saying it is just a better Vista, use it.

 

I've been using the RC of 7 for about 6 months and not had 1 problem with it. Programs work on 7 that wouldn't work on Vista. It's faster, has plenty of new features. It's also extremely stable too.

 

So I'd say it's worth it, especially so for £30.

You can buy the physcial disc aswell, but it's an extra £8. I did.

I'm just burning a few copies of it and keeping a backup of the ISO on my external. To make sure I never lose it. Lol
