There’s more evidence Microsoft (MSFT) is about to offer people who buy PCs over the next few months a free upgrade to Windows 7, the forthcoming version of the company’s operating system. Computerworld has discovered a Web site registered to Microsoft called Windows7UpgradeOption.com.
The barebones Web site says simply: “Thank you for your interest. Please return to this site on June 26, 2009.”
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Websites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other websites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
