I’m not sure how long this is going to persist, but copies of Windows 7 Home Premium are selling on sites like Amazon in the UK for £65 ($107), whereas in the US a copy will set you back $200. The situation isn’t as pronounced for Windows 7 Professional, with a full version costing £150 ($248) in the UK and $300 in the US.
I live in London, and for once it’s nice to get better pricing than the US. If you live in the US, then maybe it’s worthwhile trying to work out who you know who lives in the UK who can post a copy to you. Postage is only going to cost $8 tops, so you’ll still save $80.
