Microsoft has dropped the price for a Windows 8 Pro upgrade, from the previously stated £39.99 to £24.99 in the UK. The original statement, with the higher price, upset Windows fans in the nation, who would have been paying much more than their U.S. counterparts, who get the upgrade for $40 USD.
Microsoft says the original price was a mis-communication between the company and its press agency.
Windows 8 will be available on October 26th.
The operating system is the centerpiece of the company's overhaul, which includes a new Office suite, Windows Phone 8, and Windows RT, built for ARM-based tablets.
