Microsoft has just put up some box shots of its soon to be released Windows Vista and Office 2007, which are slated to hot store next year. Both the box and style have been designed to attract the eye.

“The packaging has been completely revised and, we hope, foreshadows the great experience that awaits you once you open it,” said Vista product manager Nick White. “Designed to be user-friendly, the new packaging is a small, hard, plastic container that’s designed to protect the software inside for life-long use.”

The boxes of windows Vista are grand enough to get anyone worked up about the highly-anticipated operating system. The Windows Vista Ultimate surely looks like it could be the ‘ultimate’ operating system

Then there’s Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Home Basic and Windows Vista Business.

There are box shots of Microsoft Office Professional 2007 and Office Home and Student 2007.
