possible vista prices?

The Canadian Microsoft retail pricing page had the various versions of Microsoft Vista listed along with their SKUs. It immediately got taken down, but not before they were recorded for the world to see. Here is the big 'ole list. I busted out the abacus and converted all of the prices to USD. I'm such a nice guy.

Full Version
•Vista Ultimate $450
•Vista Business $341
•Vista Home Premium $269
•Vista Home Basic $233
Upgrade Version
•Vista Ultimate Upgrade $269
•Vista Business Upgrade $224
•Vista Home Premium Upgrade $179
•Vista Home Basic Upgrade $116

Those are indeed some high prices, but as with all things, when newly released, the prices are always high until they drop as time goes by.

Just as i opened this thread i got an auto email from Microsoft indicating that there's a pre RC1 build available weighing in at 2.58gb. Downloading now. Should be finished in about 12 hours. Will post findings after install.

Give it a week after release when people dig up in it a lil n after the first crash / error maybe the price will drop

heh.  Certainly haven't read anything that would change my vote on Vista.  However, the triple boot idea wasn't too bad...in the other thread.  We should prolly mesh the 2 threads.
I'd believe u if you were right.
