Windows 7: $30 For Students

Sep 17 2009, 12:16pm CDT | by Robert Evans

Windows 7 will be out soon, and the Premium Home edition will run a wallet-unfriendly $120. If you're a student, however, things get a lot more reasonable. Microsoft is now offering $30 student pricing! Considering students also have ridiculous textbook fees, criminal tuition rates, rent, and a bad economy to deal with, this discount is extremely welcome!

All you have to do in order to qualify for this is be a registered student of an American university on or before the Win 7 launch. That's a pretty great deal, especially considering how much of an improvement 7 is over Vista. Don't worry children, the dark days are almost over.
