Microsoft has lined up some pretty sweet deals with its latest iteration of the Windows client at the core, beating hands-down the special offerings it made available for Windows Vista, when it debuted in January 2007. The special discounts offered for students fall without a doubt in the “pretty sweet deals” category. In this regard, Microsoft is offering Windows 7 for as low as 35€ (Euros). Of course, access to the 35€ Windows 7 editions is limited; in fact, the special offering is only valid for students in France and Germany.

Microsoft has already introduced similar discounts, even before Windows 7 was generally available on the market. In mid-September 2009, the Redmond-based company debuted the Windows 7 UK Student Offer, which was designed to allow students in the United Kingdom to purchase either Windows 7 Home Premium or Windows 7 Professional for as low as £30. The offer continues to be available even now, and UK students with a valid email address can, of course, take advantage of it.

Almost immediately after news of the Windows 7 UK Student Offer started spreading, Microsoft officially confirmed that it had a similar offering for students in the US. A better deal actually, as the software giant is allowing US students to buy Windows 7 Home Premium for the low price of $29.99.

Via the “Windows 7 a 35 Euros pour les etudiants” French students can buy the Home Premium SKU for the discounted price. The offer will continue to be available until January 3, 2010. Similarly, German students can access the “Windows 7 Home Premium-Upgradeangebot fur Studenten” deal. The offer allows students in Germany with valid email addresses to buy an upgrade copy of Windows 7 Home Premium for 35 Euros until February 28, 2009.
