Let’s face it, most households these days just don’t have just the one computer.

It’s also expensive to keep computers maintained with the latest hardware and software so it’s important to keep your eyes peeled for a good deal when available.<\/p>\n

Well, there’s some good news. The Windows 7 Family Pack is making a return after being quite successful at the Windows 7 launch last year and it is now available in Australia!<\/p>\n

For $249 you can get three copies of the upgrade version of Windows 7 Home Premium (so $83 each) in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavours (64-bit is definitely recommended on systems with 4GB RAM or higher as per my prior blog on this matter<\/a>). It’s available at popular computing retailers such as Officeworks, David Jones and JB Hi-Fi amongst others.<\/p>\n

For those of you disappointed that there is no deal for the full version of Windows 7, you can still do a clean install using the upgrade media – you can find more information here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
