“Microsoft sees the sales of the Windows 7 product lineup in a bell curve. The vast majority of sales will be Home Premium for consumers and Professional for businesses and enthusiasts. The majority of Windows sales will be 64-bit, with over 75% of total sales through OEM installations.
However, the true value of Windows 7 can only be determined when compared against its cost. Microsoft has not yet released any pricing information.”
