   just to summarise for other readers, the "streamlined" W7 offering is

   Windows 7 Ultimate

   Windows 7 Enterprise

   Windows 7 Professional

   Windows 7 Home Premium

   Windows 7 Home Basic

   i think that's it. for the record i loathe the word premium and don't understand why MS uses it in their marketing.

   it's that word that companies use, particularly on food where they want to make it look like there is some better quality but everyone knows there isn't.

   should have been

   Windows 7 Enterprise

   Windows 7 Small Business (pro)

   Windows 7 Home (premium)

   Windows 7 Basic (home basic)

   and do away with the confusing Ultimate.

   I really dislike this silly editions thing. Wish MS would release a clean and simple "one for all" package. Optional selection of feature sets at install time.

   Why do I have to buy a "Home Premium Edition"  when in fact it is the "regular" Windows 7? And what about "Ultimate Edition"... "Windows Plus" comes back to mind.

   MS seems to be successful to streamline Vista. Not so with these awkward "Editions"... Apple imo is right here to make fun of MS.

   what id like to see is something like this

   windows 7 core (a stripped down version a bit like home basic)

   and then have the abilty to buy more fetures

   for instance id like to be able to get aero and shadow copy bitlocker

   but i dont want media center

   so why not offer a windows 7 core edition for 50 dollors and have the option of unlocking individual features for a set amount like aero for 10 dollor or bitlocker for 5 and stuff

   I have to chime in with my dismay at the ridiculous number of versions that Microsoft plans to market Windows 7.  I suggest the following:

   Windows Basic: non-USA version for emerging countries

   Windows 7 Home

   Windows 7 Business

   Windows 7 Ultimate

   Actually adcworks I believe it should be:

   - Windows 7 Enterprise (has all the high powered stuff for big biz)

   - Windows 7 Small Business (like above but a cut down version)

   - Windows 7 Education (with lots of extra stuff for students, schools and teachers)

   - Windows 7 Home (with media, gaming stuff etc)

   Make sense?

   Cheers
