images/news/windows7.jpgMicrosoft has confirmed to Ars that it will honor Windows 7 preorders in Europe as the full versions they were advertised as.

Redmond has put to rest a big question for those who have preordered copies of Windows 7 E in Europe: despite the whole Windows 7 E fiasco, they will still be getting full version copies. "While Microsoft will now have upgrade, full packaged product SKUs of Windows 7 available in Europe, we will continue to honor the pricing offers made in Europe before this change is implemented," a Microsoft spokesperson told Ars. "Users who have preordered a full license to Windows 7 will be able to receive that license."

sometimes i wonder if corps knowingly publicize that they are going to do something unpopular, then retract, making themselves look even better than before ...
