I'm still seriously hoping Microsoft doesn't release 5 versions. 3 maybe. Releasing 5 is just asking for trouble.

^+1. Starter and Basic are totally un-needed. May be for OEMs only, that'll be OK.

MMMMMMMMM 2TB DRIVE!!!! DROOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL

 

[randomizer]

Starter was only released in a few countries anyway. It's a useless OS, it only supports 1GB of RAM.

All of those versions were Debunked as leftovers from Vista. 7 will release in multiple versions, but not the same versions as Vista (don't know the specifics, so it may be more, it may be less).

Yeah, I thought this was already established. The list in the Beta installation is just leftover from Vista.

If intel comes out with the 8 core/16 thread beast, then im sure the next Mac pro will have them. Since my work is in love with mac pros, we will buy a bunch. That means that i will get to operate a machine with theoretical 32 Cores...

Mother of God.
