Check prices for Microsoft Products! (CDN $)


Recommended Posts

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 ;), this is how it is in Canada...We get ripped off by a $100 :rofl:. Ask any fellow Canadian :whistle:.

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!)

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.

For the Aussies in da house :p

The article mentions Neowin.net and user TheGriffin.

What do you know, I made into an article :o!

Wish other websites stop claiming it's their source and use Neowin's news post as the original :no:.

To give them the benifiet of the doubt, it is possible that they discovered it on their own. But it would be nice, if they did find it through us, that they would give us credit.

But regardless, congrats on making the Australian IT (Y)

-- Vista Pricing Revealed

WinInfo -- Newsletter

by Paul Thurrott, [email protected]

Online retailer Amazon.com has begun taking preorders for various

Windows Vista versions, which will be available January 30, 2007,

according to Amazon.com. Not surprisingly, the prices that Amazon.com

lists for Vista are quite similar to the roughly equivalent Windows XP

versions.

According to Amazon.com, the prices for Vista are as follows:

Vista Home Basic: $199.00

Vista Home Basic Upgrade: $99.95 -- Maybe drop to this version..

Vista Home Basic Upgrade (Additional License Only): $89.95

Vista Home Premium: $239.00

Vista Home Premium Upgrade: $159.00 :( [How much is that in Australian dollars ..]

Vista Home Premium Upgrade (Additional License Only): $143.00

Vista Business: $299.00

Vista Business Upgrade: $199.00

Vista Business Upgrade (Additional License Only): $179.00

Vista Ultimate: $399.00

Vista Ultimate Upgrade: $259.00

Vista Ultimate Upgrade (Additional License Only): $233.00

Although not every Vista version correlates exactly with an XP

version, the pricing is in line with XP pricing. For example, XP Home

costs $189.00, compared with $199.99 for Vista Home Basic, and the XP

Home Upgrade costs $89.97, only two cents more than the Vista Home

Basic Upgrade. Upsells won't be particularly expensive either: Prices

for the much more capable Vista Home Premium are just $40 to $60

higher than those of Vista Home Basic.

Amazon.com doesn't yet show the box art that Microsoft will use for

its Vista retail versions. Earlier this week, Microsoft Canada also

slipped with a bit of Vista pricing information: The company's Web

site briefly reported that Vista Ultimate would cost $450 in Canadian

dollars.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
