If you currently have three or more PCs in your home and you are looking at getting Windows 7 then Microsoft are offering you the chance to upgrade three of your PCs to Windows 7 Home Premium for £149.99. That’s quite a saving as a single Home Premium upgrade is £69.99.

Also if you look around retailers you may find they are adding their own offers to the deal, Amazon.co.uk is offering the 3x Home Premium Upgrade for £129.99.

"[...] I have my fears about how Microsoft is going to handle Windows 8 for ARM devices; I think that if Windows 8 is used to describe both x86/x64 and ARM experiences even though they are different it is going to cause massive confusion for consumers. You can read about my idea for using the name Metro instead of Windows 8 for Windows 8 on ARM. [...]"

"Disappointing. I have no issues with the media controls. The number one request to developers was to add support for Bluetooth. Sort of embarrassing when I want to quickly transfer a file to a friend and I have to explain that my brand new Windows Phone can't do that. This is inexcusable. Bad enough we lost the ability to sync with Outlook as well as the USB mass storage device feature."
