images/news/vista.jpgMicrosoft has in Japan, combined Windows Vista Home Premium with Windows Live OneCare in one eye-popping hot pink box.

As a special promotion for the Japanese market, an upgrade version of Windows Vista Home Premium is bundled with a year’s subscription of Windows Live OneCare and a copy of a Vista tips and tricks book. The pink flowers are called sakura (cherry blossoms) and this is being released for the Sakura or ‘Cherry Blossom’ season, which is a BIG event in Japan.

though on a serious note: scara, you do realize you are advertising vista, no matter the content. all us regular joes out here hear "vista" so much from you, our subconsciouses are becoming flooded with it. i now associate your name with vista...

I'm beginning to think (HaHa!) that DX10 is like Ecstasy. It hypes you up the first few times but all you end up with is a feeling of lost time and some serious brain injury.

After building a box for my brother last weekend, replete with a fresh install of X64 and all the speed that came with it, I'm getting really close to ditching Vista. It's pretty but very slow. They should've named it Windows Alba.

A really interesting thing about this hot pink box is the hot pink price. Notice in the price of 2500¥ (Yen). That translates to $25.01, £12.52, and €15.84. Perhaps there are other fees or charges but that is the price on the box. Being that my Japanese language skills are non existant, I can't read the rest of the information so I don't know if there is more explaination. But I do know what the posted price is...talker. :roadrunner:
