I hope with this release they resolve some edition confusions between nonsensical words, like Premium, Professional, Ultimate, etc.

- nobodyshere 13y agoI believe they should get rid of different versions and just make one. That'd also be great when ordering custom laptops where some features somehow depend on which version of windows you pick (i.e. 'Fresh start' on Sony).
- daigoba66 13y agoDespite some of the earlier marketing, describing how much simpler the editions became, it's still a cluster-mess. For example read about problems upgrading to 8.1 for various editions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/why-can-t-find-update-store# http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/why-can-t-find-.... Upgrading to a "service pack" in previous versions of Windows never seemed this complicated.
- yuhong 13y agoWhat is also funny about the 8.1 "update" is also that the system requirements for the 64-bit versions actually increased.
- dman 13y agoIf they dont do that they should at least make a list of comprehensive differences between the editions. The page for comparing versions seems to be made by the marketing dept and is mostly fluff. I found out the hard way that professional versions dont support multi monitor RDP and NFS shares. You need to buy enterprise for that. Try finding this out ahead of time using the website.
