Hmmm, I was surfing through Microsoft's Canadian site and found a "Product Price" section, and apparently they have Windows Vista and Office 2007 already listed there with prices in Canadian Dollars.

http://www.microsoft.com/canada/pricelists/

I don't know if this is relevant or not, I thought it was a good find for me as I've been wanting the precise price of Windows Vista Home Premium in Canadian!

Tip to Americans: Minus $100 from the Canadian price and you get the USD retail price wink.gif, this is how it is in Canada...We get ripped off by a $100 rofl.gif. Ask any fellow Canadian whistle.gif.

I personally think Vista Home Premium is the best edition for the price.

EDIT: Check here what you think meets ur wants and then check it's price.

Wow, did you see the price for Vista Ultimate Upgrade? $300 CDN, that's actually pretty cheap for what Microsoft is saying is "the most premium OS package ever offered". I actually predicted that it would cost around $600, but that's actually a pretty fair price!

(oops, beat by 3 minutes!)

Office Pro 2007 for $759 ? Even in Canadian dollars, that can't be right.

No, $300 CAD sounds about right. Isn't that what XP Pro upgrade was when it came out? And remember, you say upgrade. When you think that way, it does sound quite expensive.

Now here's something interesting: Amazon.com has Windows Vista @ $399. They also state that it will be released on Jan. 30, 2007. You can actually pre-order it now according to the site.
