Microsoft may offer a Windows 7 ‘Family Pack’ option

July 3rd, 2009 by Karen

Microsoft may offer a multi-license “family pack” for Windows 7, according to a post by blogger Kristan Kenney on ZDNet earlier this week, the end user licence agreement (EULA) included with the recently leaked version of Windows 7 Home Premium under a section titled “Installation And Use Rights,” the EULA states: “If you are a ‘Qualified Family Pack User’, you may install one copy of the software marked as ‘Family Pack’ on three computers in your household for use by people who reside there. Those computers are the ‘licensed computers’ and are subject to these license terms. If you do not know whether you are a Qualifised [sic] Family Pack User, visit: go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Linkid=141399 or contact the Microsoft affiliate serving your country.”

The link included in the EULA clause currently redirects to Microsoft’s home page.

Microsoft would neither confirm nor deny that it plans to offer the family pack, a representative is quoted as stating: “We will continue to work with our partners and expect to have other great offers in the future as we lead up to and beyond general availability … We have nothing to announce at this time.”
