Ok, clear as mud... I had and oem version of xp on my dell laptop and recently bought a new hard drive. I installed the RC of windows 7 on the new hard drive and would like to upgrade to the legit version before the trial runs out. I also have my desktop running vista business. Might be worth a shot!

So Windows 7 Family Pack is now going to be sold in Australia at AU$249. That's a very good price for three licenses.

So what about here then? How come no announcement for the NZ market?

No, not via their ordering page. Country pre-filled as Australia and only Aust States can be selected.

ask them nicely to quote you the price excluding Australian GST

because when they export it out of the country they can claim that back, if they won't, then you're being ripped another 1/10th (excuse me maths)
