Windows Windows 7 will be released October 22, and the pricing information for both the full and upgrade versions have been known for a while. However, as most of us geeks will know, there's a third variant you can buy, apart from upgrades and full versions: OEM or system builder releases. NewEgg has leaked the pricing information for these releases too.

Didn't an article come out recently that said it's about $29? Don't have a link handy.

I seem to remember that as well somewhere. I can't find it now though. I do know that if you are an MS Employee, and shop at the company store, you can get Windows XP Professional for $30 USD. I found that out when working with EMC a few years ago on the Redmond campus for the place I worked at, and we got to actually shop in the store.
