Windows 7 Retail Jewel-case Designs Surface

btarunr · May 11, 2009

Microsoft impressed many by releasing the evaluation version Windows 7 Release Candidate ahead of the formal launch of its Windows 7 line of client operating systems. Polish website CentrumXP.pl caught early glimpses of what the jewel-cases of the some of the variants of Windows 7 could look like, along those of the Anytime Upgrade packs that let users promote their Windows 7 variant to a higher variant. The case design resembles that of Windows Vista, along with variants retaining the box color scheme from those of their predecessors. The Windows logo looks frosty-white, and gets some of the motifs from the default user login background Windows 7 RC sports.

Nice looking boxes.

Nice

I like their new Frosty designs

RadeonX2 · May 11, 2009

looking nice especially the blue one

They're well on their way to a very successful OS release that will rid them of the vista stigma. I'm thinking Snow Lepoard will be coming out around the same time. Nice boxes though.

PCpraiser100 · May 11, 2009

Those are far better than Vista: simple and elegant, not graphics artist overkill.

64 bit ?

BazookaJoe · May 11, 2009

I'm quite sure we are going to see this OS drop a LOT sooner than we are being told.

nVidia's frantic driver testing? All of the "Leaked" betas?

Heck even Winrar has a Win7 beta in final stages...

And now box shots? ... Do the math...

M$ take a pointer from Apple.

Release one os version

wiak · May 11, 2009

At the very least, Home and Pro. Pro has everything, Home obviously does not.

if you got vista you got 95% 7, vista SP2 64-bit performance is just as good as 7 64-bit atm

ultimate has everything not pro or home
home got everything you need for home, professional got everything you need for work AND home

h3llb3nd4 · May 11, 2009

And I would be getting Ultimate

Hayder_Master · May 11, 2009

it is not written if 64bit or not

Your imagination, or hopeful speculation. I believe the plan has always been to follow Vista's lead in regard for versions.
