Some of you will groan at the inquirer, but it seems to me they've always had reliable info. I will not be buying vista, ever, and this just another reason why.

2k3 web edition
2k3 standard edition
2k3 enterprise edition
2k3 datacenter edition

That won't keep you from using it, now does it? lol just kidding


So let's see ...

Starter Edition - Probably good for brain-less desktops, like vitual shops just around the corner ... access to one main application, most probably web-based one
Home Basic Edition
Home Premium Edition - Probably we'll see this one default on laptops?
Professional
Small Business Edition
Enterprise Edition - That would make it the bigest one for working purposes
Ultimate Edition - Play, play, play ... oh, and tweak ... to play!


Anyway, that's way too much versions in my opinion ... XP has 2 versions (Home and Pro, excluding 64bit), and I don't think we would need more than that ... I mean, isn't windows supposed to be a dynamic OS? Like installing/uninstalling software and components according to the needs? Always thought it was ...

Yes there is, the one with Media Player removed per the settlement.

JackMDS - you must be barefoot too.
Nike, Adidas, Reebok, and who knows what else (I don't keep up on the shoe market)
running shoes
walking shoes
crosstraining shoes
lounging-around shoes (?)
horseshoes


Which one????

 

[n7]

I want the Ultimate POS Edition

 

[Presence]

So people will get confused just cause there are so many versions? Will it be like all the others who come in here and ask what version of Linux they should get?
