Microsoft Offer College Students a free Xbox 360 with Every Windows 7 PC purchase

Great NEWS  for college students!

Microsoft announced today that it will offer a free Xbox 360 with 4 gigabytes of storage (a $199 value) to any student who purchases a Windows 7 computer for $699 or more.

Its a smooth move for Microsoft, since it gets Xbox 360s into even more dorm rooms, gives students one more reason to go with a Windows PC instead of a Mac, and is a great way to get rid of its low-end Xbox 360 stock. Even better, Microsoft is allowing students to purchase any Windows 7 PC over $699 though it recommends a few specific models like the sexy Samsung Series 9 ultraportable.

Apple has offered students similar deals in the past by offering them a free iPod Touch. But by offering students a free Xbox 360, Microsoft will also ensure that it has a presence on their televisions. At this point, the Xbox 360 is more than just a game console its an entertainment centerpiece thanks to its support for Netflix, Last.FM, and Microsoft Zune Market.
