Handmaiden Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 My son's computer is crashing and we need to buy Windows 7 asap. Does anyone know where we can buy Windows 7 with a student or teacher discount (less than $80)? TIA!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisak Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I don't know if this helps you, but we purchase our computers and accessories from NewEgg. Here is a link for windows 7 that is below $80: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116773&cm_re=windows_7-_-32-116-773-_-Product Good Luck!

Dobela Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Eons ago I used to buy them with student discounts thru Hastings. I don't know if they still offer them though. I would consider calling a local computer service center and see if they can purchase them for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handmaiden Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thanks, Lisa. That particular upgrade won't work, unfortunately, because we'd need to already own a previous copy of Windows 7. Dobela, thanks for the tip. Shucks, I don't know of any computer service center around here. I do recall online sites selling student versions...I just can't remember where. Anyone else have a lead? :bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handmaiden Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 Update for those who may be in this situation (or for future reference), we found what we needed! journeyed.com gives educators, including homeschoolers, discounts on software. We had to submit proof of homeschooling (HSLDA card), and this earned us the student discount! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
