donizme Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Microsoft is claiming all versions of its Windows 7 (6 Versions total! :wacko: ) will work on Netbooks! Microsoft provided PCMag with documents that describe the six different versions of Windows 7 in unprecedented detail:Hang on a second. Any edition of Windows 7 can be run on a netbook?With "sufficient hardware." At this point, it's not known whether Microsoft is being deliberately obtuse, or the Windows 7 operating system is compartmentalized enough that even more advanced versions will tailor themselves to the hardware."We've invested significantly in engineering efforts around improving performance, reliability, and compatibility in Windows 7," Microsoft says. "These improvements apply to all Windows 7 SKUs. A great example is watching even the full-featured Windows 7 Ultimate running well on small notebook PCs that have sufficient hardware."http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2340338,00.aspBut hey guys don't worry about the 6 versions. You can only buy two from the retail shops( Windows 7 Home Premium or Windows 7 Professional)Here are the versions how PCMAG and I would describe them:Developing Countries: Windows 7 Home BasicPeople who only do basic things on their computers(Surf/Ms Office): Windows 7 Starter (Can only have 3 windows open at once!) :unsure: People Who do casual/normal stuff on their computers(Surf/Ms Office/Games/Movies/Etc...: Windows 7 Home Premium(Will become Most Popular Version)Small Businesses: Windows 7 Professional Large Businesses: Windows 7 EnterpriseLarge businesses or Individuals who want "everything": Windows 7 UltimatePersonally, I want Windows 7 Home Premium, maybe nsanedown.com could think about putting it up please :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shought Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Your final suggestion is never going to happen, but we'll most likely provide a torrent that is working for you guys.We haven't got the bandwidth(not a single site in the world does) to host any Windows version(produced after 2000) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
