"CSDN News" according to foreign media reports, Microsoft confirmed in Tuesday that the company plans to sell windows 7 in retail stores on October 22, while starting to preinstall the operating system on the new PC.

Microsoft plans to complete the Windows 7 development process by the middle of next month or by the end of the month, Bilvidi, Microsoft's senior vice president, said in an interview today Veghte. "The market has been very good with the RC (Release Candidate) version of Windows 7," he said.

Microsoft released its RC version of Windows 7 last month and soon confirmed that it plans to release the official version in the 2009-year holiday season.

Phil McKinney, chief technology officer at Hewlett-Packard Personal Systems Group, said in an interview that he felt good about the date Microsoft released the official version of Windows 7, and we are waiting for the release of Windows 7, which has a fairly good coding quality for Filmeckenny.

Microsoft also confirmed that the company plans to offer some type of technical guarantee, offering free or discounted Windows 7 operating systems to PC customers pre-installed with Vista, without revealing specifics. As in the past, Microsoft will still only provide PC manufacturers with details on pricing. However, Microsoft revealed that the aforementioned upgrade plan would apply to Vista Home Premium and the more expensive version, that is, the program does not apply to the Windows Vista Basic system.

Microsoft says the Technology Guarantee program does not start immediately after Windows 7 releases, but also increases the likelihood of offering Windows Vista customers some kind of low-cost upgrade plan.

Analysts say Microsoft is likely to include some of the deferred revenue associated with the Vista system on the issue of the technology Guarantee program, but Microsoft has also not disclosed details about it. Verity said: "We will be based on the timing of the introduction of this plan to take the relevant financial calculation."
