Oh dear. It's the move that everyone was hoping Microsoft wasn't going to make, but it looks like it's going to make it. Seems that Windows 7 will come in a bunch of versions - much like Vista - titled Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate. The news surfaced in a screenshot on a Chinese blog depicting Beta build 7025. Most people are running 7000 - which is the version currently (but not for much longer) available to the public. Microsoft's forthcoming OS has been getting rave reviews from all corners of the internet - even those traditionally very pro-Apple. I'm a big fan myself - I've got it installed on a laptop that struggled with Vista, and it runs like a dream. It remains to be seen exactly how cut-down the 'Home' versions will end up being, and if unlike Vista, the Ultimate edition is worth the extra cash.
