Microsoft has some good news for consumers who buy a new PC with Windows 7 pre-installed and look to upgrade to a higher-end version of the operating system.

The company has said that participating retailers are to begin offering discounted pricing for Windows 7 Anytime Updates.

Datamation takes a look at the promotion.

In a move that may help buoy sales of Windows 7 during the final quarter of its fiscal year, Microsoft said that participating retailers will offer steep discounts on Anytime Upgrades starting Sunday.
