"The launch of Windows 7 has superseded everyone's expectations, storming ahead of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows as the biggest grossing pre-order product of all-time at Amazon.co.uk, and demand is still going strong" says Brian McBride, Amazon UK MD.

Windows 7 even had more pre-orders than Harry Potter, and we all know if something outsells Harry Potter, its smokin' hot.

In fact, Windows 7 was able to tally up more sales in the first 8 hours of pre-order availability than Vista was able to collect altogether. Now that's what we call an upgrade.
