After the release of Windows Vista, which was pretty impossibly high priced, and not that suave to put it mildly, the newest offering from Microsoft is being treated with certain caution. However, with the presentation of Windows 7, which promises to set things right and have a bevy of updates which are sure to make your computer better, would be available to the users with a variety of new ideas. A lot of people are speculating on how much will Windows 7 cost when launched, and here is the answer.

First of all, for those who already possess a copy of Windows XP or Vista Original can go for an update at only $119.99. This means, if you own a licensed copy of Windows XP or Vista, then you can upgrade to Windows 7 home premium for $119.99. It is very modestly priced, and it is quite a bargain for those who have already paid for the previous versions which were quite expensive.

For clean new users, Windows 7 Home Premium would be available at $199.99, which is far less than Windows Vista's Home Premium version. That is definitely a good sign, and it would mean a lot less money to pay for a better operating system.

There is another scheme for families with more than one computer in the household. Those who have three or more computers can now get an upgrade family pack for just $149.99. This means, if you have already installed Windows XP or Vista in your computers, you can upgrade it to Windows 7 in up to three computers. That means, your overall savings would be about $210, because if you try to individually load the upgrades, you would be looking at about $360 of expenditure, at $119.99 per computer. This would save you a lot of money on your computer's upgrade, and would also encourage people to use original versions of the software. The Home Premium version is pretty capable of taking care of your computer needs, and you would see it comes with most functionality available.

If you are looking for the Windows 7 Business version and want to know how much would Windows 7 cost in that module, then you should be looking for the Windows 7 Professional. This product is available for only $299.99 for the full version. If you want to upgrade your existing XP or Vista version, then it would cost you $199.99, which is way lower than Vista cost. There is a fantastic backup program included in this system, which allows you to store all your files and folders safely.

And if you want to know how much would Windows 7 cost in the Ultimate version, then you are in luck. Getting Windows 7 Ultimate would be your best option if you are a fanatic about security. With Bitlocker you would be able to encrypt the entirety of your hard disk. That way, you would never give out your details to any internet crime corporate, keeping your data safe. This would come for a price of $319.99, and the upgrade would be costing $219.99
