Vista prices fall even further Posted by Ina Fried \| 118 comments I expected to see some lower Vista prices in this weekend's ads, but was surprised to see just how low the prices had fallen. Officially the price cuts announced by Microsoft on Thursday don't take effect until later this year when Service Pack 1 hits retail shelves. However, the company had said that many retailers were offering promotions that bring the software to its lower price. But the ad at OfficeMax took things a step further. In this week's circular, the office products chain is selling Windows Vista Home Premium for $99. That's $30 less than Microsoft's just-lowered price and the same as the suggested price for Windows Vista Home Basic--though perhaps just a hair more than the clearance prices a couple weeks back at closing CompUSA stores. The question now is just how low will Vista go. news.com
