Gee.....and Ubuntu is FREE...
I can't jump from one version of an MS OS to the other without having to pay for it....
Obviously you have no clue what I'm getting at.
Quit throwing the lame "open source versions" excuse out there...Ubuntu doesn't have 21 different versions of its OS out there, neither does Suse, neither does Fedora....
This is one company that's doing this.
Windows XP Home
Windows XP Pro
Windows XP Starter
Windows XP Media Center
Windows XP Tablet PC
Windows XP 64-bit
Windows XP Embedded
Windows Vista Starter
Windows Vista Home Basic
Windows Vista Home Premium
Windows Vista Business
Windows Vista Enterprise
Windows Vista Ultimate
Windows Vist 64-bit
Windows Vista Embedded
Windows 7 Starter Edition (for emerging market and netbook users)
Windows 7 Home Premium (Media Center equivalent)
Windows 7 Home Basic (for emerging market customers only)
Windows 7 Professional (the business SKU for home users and non-enterprise licensees)
Windows 7 Enterprise (for volume licensees)
Windows 7 Ultimate (for consumers who want/need business features)
So upon release, we could see TWENTY ONE different versions of 3 OSes floating around the IT world.
I am shocked an appalled by the malicious free capitalism that the Monty Python troupe has exhibited by making their skits free on YouTube without having consumers purchase them first. This is in clear violation of the principles of marketing and I will do everything within my power to see this effort is sacked.
