This is just a friendly reminder that Windows 7E discounted preorders begin today in the UK, France, and Germany. Microsoft has continually emphasized that the offer is on “while supplies last.” France will only have a total of 76000 preorder units available.

Why only in UK, France and Germany? Why there isnt way to preorder Windows 7E from other EU countries like Czech Republic?
Some countries can order from those European sites I believe. Austria from Germany for example. Give it a try. I’m not too familiar with buying on Amazon in Europe though
