Windows 7 Starter Edition — 3 Apps Only

CrustyFace writes "Cybernit reports that the Starter Edition version of Windows 7 will only allow the user to run 3 applications at once. Targeted at notebooks, this doesn't seem like such a bad limitation, however it is a bold move from Microsoft, and it will be interesting to see how the operating system sells."

    I never thought that the summary was correct. I also wasn't karma whoring. I was calling someone out for getting their panties in a twist and calling someone down while simultaneously making the exact same error themselves. He wasn't indicating that the summary was bad, he was accusing the previous poster of throwing a hissy fit, failing to read, and/or karma whoring.

    My post was about turning a mirror on the poster, not whether or not Win 7 would end up on notebooks. If you missed that, well I guess I should have wrapped the whole thing in sarcasm tags to avoid confusion.
