Cheapest Windows Vista costing only $66

Microsoft has dramatically cut the price of Windows Vista Home versions in China in a bid to boost sales.

This could be seen as a move to counter the wide spread of pirated version of Windows Vista in the chinese market, which is believed to be selling for $1 per DVD. Reducing Vista’s price in China narrows the price gap between original versions of Microsoft’s software and pirated copies, and should result in higher sales

But, the problem is not about piracy, it lies more on the mentality of each individual. Having the opportunity to further my studies in Australia, I have come to notice that with the current booming economy, the whites or Australians do buy pirated CDs when they visit countries like China or simply download them off the internet with programs like Bittorrent.

$66 may be cheap for citizens from first world countries.
