Windows 7 Home Premium License Agreement Hints At A Family Pack
When Windows 7′s pricing was announced last week, it sparked a bit of a controversy. Some felt that the price tag was too high, others felt it was quite reasonable. Regardless of where you stand, a family pack would be a welcomed addition as it would allow you to install Microsoft’s new OS on multiple systems–and it appears that it may be coming. Tucked away in Windows 7 Home Premium’s licensing agreement is a line that proves most curious:
“If you are a ‘Qualified Family Pack User’, you may install one copy of the software marked as ‘Family Pack’ on three computers in your household for use by people who reside there.”
If this comes to pass, it would be terrific news as several homes have multiple computers (including myself and I live alone). A dollar amount isn’t mentioned, but how much would you pay for a Windows 7 family pack? [Hat tip: JKontheRun]
