Microsoft cuts Windows 7 prices
Microsoft has revealed the cost of its Windows 7 operating system, but will cuts be enough to make up for lower US prices?
By Nicole Kobie,
The only reduction in price that UK consumers will see is on the full version of Vista Home, which has been cut by £20.
Microsoft also noted it will have 14 languages available from 22 October, with the rest added a week later. It said that was the fastest it has yet to hit so many languages after general release.

Remember tables?
Dear Nicole, You could have made life easier for us by putting all that Win7 pricing data in one or two tables. I know tables are frowned upon in certain IT circles, but they are 'allowed' for TABULAR data, which I do believe is what you potentially have here. Have a heart next time, please.
