Microsoft has announced via the Windows 7 Team Blog that Windows 7 will be released on October 22nd. This is a lot quicker than some people expected as Microsoft had previously announced that Windows 7 would be released in 2010.

Pricing isn’t yet available for Windows 7, but it will probably be comparable to Window Vista and there will be upgrade options.

The Home Premium and Professional versions will be the most common ones.
