Of course it's an artificial supply, it's licenses to software. But I'm betting MS set a goal of having maybe.. a couple hundred thousand preorders worldwide to bolster its worldwide launch numbers. Maybe the preorders hop up into the millions.

What wouldn't be smart for Microsoft would be for them to sell their main source of revenue at half price.

... so I don't quite get the point of having to be first in line for something that's already available.

But I'm sure someone will set me straight posthaste if there's something I'm missing here.

Please, please try to at least sound unbiased towards Microsoft, 'cause believe it or not, there's a lot of people who read your blog who actually like Windows. And if you don't get those Windows fans to read your blog, then you don't get all those clicks on your page, which means you don't get as much ad money, which means you might lose your job, which would really suck right now. ]]>Jun 29th 2009 3:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/

Engadget must fix up the comments system, so that we do not have to click on the timestamp to get higest ranked. The comments are the only real reason for me reading engadget daily, fix it they were fine before but they suck now. I as of yet can't find a good clean tech blog to replace engadget but anyopne want to recommend one?]]>Jun 29th 2009 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/Jun 29th 2009 3:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/Jun 29th 2009 4:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/

$49.99 in the US compared to £49.99 IS a big difference ($82.38 today)

But after transferring $49.99 to his account the exchange made it £31appx (so far a saving of £18) but shipping and POSSIBLE duty will probably eat that £18 pretty quickly. ]]>Jun 29th 2009 6:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/29/windows-7-pre-orders-sell-out-in-japan/Jun 29th 2009 11:45AM
