Microsoft’s main aim with Windows 7 is to make it much easier to use than its predecessor, Vista. Apparently, this also includes the packaging that it comes in.
While the old packaging did take a brief moment to figure out, the new box will work in a way that most of us are very familiar with, and open just like a DVD case. However, the shape of the package will remain the same. It’ll include just the disc and a getting started guide.
Overall, Microsoft reports that they’ve been able to lighten up the package weight by 37 percent with these changes.

When I got Vista it was for OEM for the desktop that I built so I didn't get the plastic package everyone seems to hate.
Packaging?
