   I walked into one of the big box stores with a dozen   
   different laptops on display and every blasted one   
   was being sold with Windows 8.   
      
   It looks like Microsoft has already started leaning on   
   every OEM to STOP bundling Win 7 with their hardware   
   and bundle Win8 with their systems instead, even   
   on the slow cheap notebook computers and systems   
   without multi-touch screens to do the pinch minimize etc.   
      
   The MS Life Cycle page says availability is "To be determined" for   
   Win7.
