This year, both Microsoft and Apple plan on releasing new versions of their OS’. Both Windows 7, and Snow Leopards are essentially the same as the prior releases except the fix problems in the previous version, and do some optimization. So, since these are not revolutionary upgrades I would expect them to be offered at a discounted rate.
Early this month, Apple announced that owners of Leopard will be able to purchase Snow Leopard at a discounted rate of $29.99. That sounds pretty reasonable to me.
Today, Microsoft announced that owners of Vista will be able to purchase Vista 7 for a full blown $219.99. What a deal. To put this in perspective, the full version of Snow Leopard will be $129.99. Microsoft => FAIL.
