Don't suppose you know, but all the places where i see "Upgrade voucher" mentioned the license is OEM, any idea why?

Unfortunately, Microsoft plans on shipping Windows 7 without Internet Explorer 8 installed in Europe.

Too bad they don't have Ultimate as part of the pre-order deal because i would have definitely ordered that.

Anyone know if the quoted prices for UK/EU include or exclude VAT?

[dr_crabman]

They include VAT.

Let me ask one thing, because in all the news I've read about Win7 I've never seen it asked. Why is it that only people who buy computers now with WinV on them get a discount toward Win7 but those of us who bought WinV not that long ago will have to pay full price for Win7, that doesn't seem fair at all!

I'll remember to laugh hard at you one day when you're complaining about the price of software.
