The Fry's here in Austin had copies of all the editions (something MS just needs to kill and ship one product) in the normal location of their cheep software area. A few people were standing around talking, but I didn't see anyone actually grab a copy and head off to checkout in the 10 minutes I was dealing with customer service.
I think most of the tech savvy people are just going to get their copy online via Technet, MSDN, some student program, as a preorder, or an OEM copy. The rest of the public will just buy a new PC at some point and get the OS. I just don't see to many retail boxes flying off the shelf with a minimum price to entry being $120.
Oh, and it seems Linus likes Windows 7:
Or maybe it was just the silly attempt by the vendor to set up shop across from a large Linux conference in Tokyo.
