Microsoft Vista May Come In Seven Versions
Microsoft's next desktop operating system may come in a record-breaking seven flavors.
Vista's versions will be divided into two broad categories -- Home and Business -- which essentially correspond to the "Home" and "Pro" divisions within Windows XP.
The Home side will include Vista Starter Edition, Vista Home Basic Edition, and Vista Home Premium Edition. The Business branch, meanwhile, will contain Vista Professional Edition, Vista Small Business Edition, Vista Enterprise Edition, and Vista Ultimate Edition.
Enterprise Edition will be a superset of Professional, with additional features, such as Virtual PC and the Secure Startup/full volume encryption security technologies (dubbed "Cornerstone" by Microsoft).
Other current SKUs in Windows XP -- including Media Center and Tablet PC -- will be rolled into one or more of the upcoming Vista editions, Vista Home Premium, for example, will feature the functionality of XP's Media Center, while Vista Professional is set to include Tablet PC features.
