Yes, I can confirm these are the real 'ugly' packaging that Windows 7 will be shipped in.

If you notice the four little windows here , it is the same as the 'welcome' screen

has anyone else noticed that the negative space on the new 7 logo is the top right corner of the windows symbol? (see above)

???

I think the upgrade boxes are indeed too busy, but the regular ones look ok. Not exciting, but simple, and the logo looks kinda cool with the lightening sort of thing.

I give it a 4 out of 5 total.

If you go back and look at any remaining XP or Vista boxes even the older versions MS never overdressed any of them to start with. PC game manufacturers spend far more time in that direction dressing up the boxes like "eye candy" to be more appealing even if the game turns out to be dud!

MS tends to use a standard formal type appearance for each version since it's the contents that really make the difference. You see that quite often with any office type or utility software sold in an office store if not at your local Walmart or BestBuy. The experienced user is looking at what the software itself will do not what the box looks like.

That page is at Microsoft seen there. You won't see anything more accurate then right from the company itself. Simply scroll down the page seen at newegg for both XP and Vista retail and oem to see the same colors used on previous versions. Newegg.com - Operating Systems, Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows Vista 32, Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows Media Center, Linux

Just found this lying around on the net, a bit more of a detailed view of the front.
