Amazon: "Windows 7 is the Biggest Pre-Order Product Of All Time"

"Windows 7 has beaten boy wizard Harry Potter to become the biggest pre-order product of all time in the UK, says Amazon. The UK arm of the retail behemoth adds that the new operating system sold more copies in the first eight hours of its release in July than Vista did in its entire pre-order period. The new OS launches officially tomorrow (October 22)."

Tomorrow is the big day, and it seems a lot of Amazon UK users are anxious to get their hands on it. I think this is the modern-day equivalent of what happened with people lining up at midnight to get Windows 95. Windows 7 is a great operating system, and people have heard the buzz.
