To note, this is not a repeat of the way Windows Vista was done. Most of the versions do have a legitimate purpose.
The six versions at present will be as follows:
1. Starter Edition
2. Basic
3. Home Premium
4. Professional
5. Ultimate
6. Enterprise
Here’s how each of these breaks down.
Starter Edition is supposed to be specifically tailored towards computers that don’t have a lot of horsepower under the hood (read: netbooks).
Basic is a version you will most likely never see on the shelves. It’s meant for "emerging markets".
Home Premium and Ultimate are the two versions you will see on the shelves and bundled with just about all OEM boxes.
Professional is supposed to be for small businesses.
Enterprise is for corporate environments.
