Software Management
If you thought that Microsoft has learned all its lessons with Vista, you 'll soon will be a disappointment. Despite the fact that Windows 7 beta is getting mostly positive reviews, the revelations that Microsoft plans to release six different flavors of Windows 7 have left many in the world of technology stupefied and wonders why.
Microsoft has confirmed the release of multiversion Windows 7 to the various sources including Gizomodo and Paul Thurrott of Windows enormous. However, Microsoft has not issued any official statement to the public regarding this decision. Many were critical of Microsoft 's decision to release multiple versions of Windows Vista. The movement has created consumer confusion as to which version might be the best thing to buy. It also generated the issues of compatibility with both software and hardware when people wanted to upgrade from XP to Vista.
Finally, many have seen the strategy of multiversions of Vista as a way for Microsoft responsibility concerned the significantly different prices for different versions of Vista for little benefit to end users. We don 't know about the evaluation or the availability (although some speculate Windows 7 will be available early next year), but here is a breakdown of what we know and the differences between versions of Windows 7.
First off, all users of XP and Vista will update the authorization of their OS to Windows 7. The firm is the updates should be a clean installation of Windows 7, meaning you 'll must reinstall the programs and support and replace the data.
Windows 7 Starter Edition
The Starter Edition (SE) is mainly aimed at emerging market and netbook users. With SE, customers will be able to run only three applications at the same time but will benefit from user interface (UI) improvements such as the new taskbar and JumpLists. Also, users will be able to join a Home Group (to share media files over a local network).

Windows 7 Home Basic
The Home Basic Edition (HB) is basically the equivalent of Vista's Media Center edition and will allow the use of unlimited applications at the same time, while bringing further UI enhancements such as live thumbnail previews and 'enhanced visual experience.' Additionally, HB enables advanced networking support like Internet connection sharing (including over wireless) and provides the Mobility Center (power management for laptops).

Windows 7 Home Premium
The Home Premium (HP) version will bring all the visual goodies of Windows 7 like the Aero Glass UI and the advanced window navigation. Besides touchscreen implementations (handwriting recognition, multitouch), the Home Premium edition also brings improved media format support and enhancements to Windows Media Center and media streaming.

Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate
Whether you're a home user or a business, the Enterprise and Ultimate editions (probably differentiated by price in the end) will bring a similar set of advanced features like bitLocker data protection for internal and external drives, DirectAccess for corporate networking based on Windows Server 2008 R2, and will lock unauthorized software from running with AppLocker.
My guess is that Microsoft will market aggressively the Home Premium and Professional editions for home users while netbook users should aim for the Starter version. Microsoft also recommends business users to use either the Professional or the Enterprise edition.
