    genuinely it should be priced under 2.5 K and if it is, it will certainly make huge dip in windows piracy, the equation of pirated and genuine will tend to reverse.

    Keeping everything in mind the correct price should be

    RS 5000 For Vista Ultimate.
    RS 3500 For Vista Basic.

    In this way the sales will soar in no time. it will also reduce piracy greatly.

    But still I have seen people who like to buy pirated software @ Rs 100. They think buying genuine software is only a way to pay much more than they can get @ Rs100. What a thinking!!

    Oh comon guys, why go for Ultimate? Just for "Ultimate" Name

    Windows Vista home premium = Rs 5000

    Windows Vista Ultimate = 10k

    Home basic = Rs 2k

    Atleast this way people will realize that Ultimate hardly provides anything usefull for home users over Home premium.

    yup ... 10-12k for ultimate is good and the premium should be 5k ...

    Well, if i really have to pay, i'd pay only the price that my ISP charges for a DVD worth of download. Why pay if i can get a much better OS for free?

    vista should be priced as much as MS decides. Do you have a say in that? I guess not. So, locked the thread.
