I hate MS, with 32 and 64 bit sets for all that's like 18 products, MS insane or what?

But OEMs have a simpler chart though:

5. windows 8 arm edition < no one will use it

its not meant to be used by you. its for guys affected by the so called tabletmania

 

[Liverpool_fan]

Starter doesn't even count as an OS. It's a gimmick. A joke.

 

[sumit05]

Windows 8 home premium is the best rest sucks.

guys y do u have get annoyed with this ...this is pure business...Package as per budget and features

will u pay 10k for Windows 7 ultimate or 3k for win 7 home? ..its as simple

Only for people who r gonna download and install pirated version have some confusion I suppose

 

[OSxSnowLeopard]

Windows vista and above = mess, xp was the only real deal. Windows xp home, media center and professional the end. Now os x is a much better choice over windows. Leaving the hardware cost part.

There should just have been three editions (apart from WOA), Home, Professional, and Enterprise.

I just hope win7 will be availed free of cost for students by the time 8 hits the markets.

i dont think that microsoft will do that... even if it give free to student then probably it will be a year after win8 launch and they will give the useless starter pack....
