Microsoft has recently revealed next generation packaging for its next generation software, Windows Vista and Office 2007. The following is the sreenshot of the packaging. See more pictures here.
Personally, I'm impressed by its packaging. Life-long use is an interesting term that add values to the reliability of windows legacy and its rounded sleek design really lure users into using this product for the rest of their life.
Nick White, Vista product manager, writes on the Vista team’s blog: “the new packaging is designed to protect the software inside for life-long use. Our plan is to extend this packaging style to other Microsoft products after the launch of Windows Vista and 2007 Office system.â€
One thing worth to point out is as far as the licensing is concerned, how can one single copy last long enough? Hopefully, Microsoft will plan to offer new cd-key which can be purchased online, say someone wants to install Vista on other computer.
