8 July 2009 13:11 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

PC World has announced the launch of its pre-order service for Microsoft Windows 7.

Claiming to offer customers a discount of over 50% (it's actually Microsoft's discount to offer) the retailer says its pre-order page will go live from 15 July.

From the 15th, Windows 7 Home Premium will be available for £49.99 while Professional will be on offer £99.99.

Anyone placing an order for the new OS will also be entitled to a free The TechGuys PC health check, worth £29.99.

The Windows 7 pre-order service will be available across the DSGi group which includes www.pcworld.co.uk, www.currys.co.uk and www.dixons.co.uk.

  • Have to love how PC World is willing to take credit for, or just plain lie about discounts.

  • Wow, and it's only $49 in the USA. Good to see Microsoft still isn't uptodate with exchange rates.

    And yes, I do know the USA one is a true 'upgrade' but the UK one is supposed to be at an upgrade price because of certain EU problems.     Posted by adrianaitken, United Kingdom
