Newegg Accidentally Realesed Windows 10 Info?

On Saturday Newegg.com leaked, by accident or not, some information concerning the new OS from Microsoft.
The page where you will go to buy the new OS, was updated and it now states that Windows 10 will cost 110$ for those that do not already own a copy of Windows 7,8 or 8.1.

That's good news since Windows 8 costs 100$, so there is not that much of a difference. If you are someone that wants to buy Windows 10, I would recommend to buy a copy of Windows 7, in order to take advantage of the free upgrade that Microsft offers!

The page also mentioned the minimum requirements for both 32 and 64-bit versions of the OS, the only difference between the two being the memory (for the 32-bit version you are going to need 1 GB of RAM while for the 64-bit 2GB ).

Full Requirements:
  • Processor: 1GHz or faster
  • RAM: 1GB (32-bit) or 2GB (64-bit)
  • Free hard disk space: 16GB
  • Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
  • A Microsoft account and Internet access
Finally, on the page there was also the release date, that everyone was asking about. Specifically the fateful day of the release of the OS will be the 31st of August of this year. However don't hold your breath till then, because Microsoft hasn't confirmed anything, yet.

Update: Microsft announced that Windows 10 will launch on the 29th of July
