Certainly an interesting move, especially considering the state of the world economy at the moment.

I assume this is going to be aimed at selling windows media PCs, 360's and peripherals? I mean, I can't see them selling a lot of software this way?

Sure, you could buy windows here, or you could use your internet to find windows for about half the price elsewhere...unless they offer educational prices instore, in which case I'm sold...windows 7 ultimate £40 anyone?
