Windows 7 packaging revealed

Microsoft has revealed the design for its Windows 7 packaging in the States, saying they've taken on board customer feedback and made it a simple clean design, easy to open, that reduces waste.

The "big bold" Windows logo is said to "clearly communicate that it's Windows 7" while the packaging consists of just the DVD-esque plastic case, the paper sleeve, and a "Getting Started Guide".

  • WHY did they put in Home Premium as a version? It should be 'Home' 'Business' and 'Ultimate'. Unless they're releasing 'Home Basic', then there's no reason for the Home version to be called 'Home Premium'.

    People using Vista who had to buy their own version have already had issues discerning which one they need.     Posted by Allan, England, UK
  • Very plain packaging. Can't get fancy after Vista.
