The Six Flavors Of Seven

February 4th, 2009

If you thought that Microsoft learned all its lessons with Vista, you’ll soon be disappointed. Despite the fact that the Windows 7 beta is getting mostly positive reviews, revelations that Microsoft plans to release six different flavors of Windows 7 left many in the tech world stupefied and wondering why.

Yeah why? Does the world really need six versions of Windows 7? Maybe they are doing it to make a statement.

Maybe, just maybe they represent something…

Windows 7 DOS (Starter)
Windows 7 3.1 (Home Basic)
Windows 7 ME (Home Premium)
Windows 7 NT (Professional)
Windows 7 XP (Enterprise)
WIndows 7 Server (Ultimate)

Dumb, I know, but so is trying to sell six versions of the same thing, at different levels of cripple.

I love Vista much more than XP (I still use both) . XP seems old for me know in doing certain little things. I do agree – six variations is silly, maybe a business and a home version plus server of course.
And are the Vista Ultimate owners still waiting for exclusive extras?
