This is a good deal if you want to upgrade multiple machines to Windows 7.

Microsoft revives Windows 7 Family Pack discount [computerworld.com] Microsoft today said it will revive last year's multi-license Windows 7 Family Pack in early October for U.S. customers. The Family Pack gives consumers three upgrade licenses from Windows XP or Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. The $150 price tag is the same Microsoft put on the package last year when it offered the deal for several weeks after the Oct 22, 2009, launch of the new operating system. This year's offer will likely be short-lived, too: Microsoft spokesman Ashley Brown said it would run "while supplies last," the same phrase the company used in 2009.
