Foley: Win7 Extended Support Updates will cost two arms and three legs
Mary Jo Foley, posting on ZDNet, has come across some official information about the price of extended support for Win7 — security patches to be delivered after Win7 reaches end of life on January 14, 2020.
If your organization’s running Win7 Pro, it’ll cost $50 per device for the first year, $100 for the second and $200 for the third.
For Win7 Enterprise, it’s $25, $50 and $100.
You have to be a volume licensing “active customer” in order to qualify to spend the extra bucks.
Microsoft hasn’t confirmed the numbers.
