    Why this ridiculous penchant for a hundred different ambiguous product title lines? What ever happened to simplicity? XP Home, XP Professional - perfect.

    Very rediculous. And it's going to cost more to divide it up into all those versions and to market it that way. You can be sure they'll pass that cost onto us.

    Where's the 1337 edition? There's a niche market waiting to be tapped!

    im keeping xp, im sure that vista will be loaded (courtesy of the RIAA) full of DRM software and things to watch you. i wouldnt be surprised if drm goes to a hardware level thing, such as an integrated controler.

    Indeed, that is the thing that worries me most about Windows, I notice slowly over time as I go from version to version that you can do less and less things (I mean more things are locked down rather that utlities and such) etc. Sure, not all of it is Microsoft's fault, but other things are... I just like to be the one that controls my OS.

    Not entirely, most things can be done in software, Hardware would just make it harder to bypass and take load off the system itself when it was doing it.
