Is there any site with explained differences between various versions out
yet (home, ultimate, basic...)? What will ultimate have but others not
etc...?
Nice they're doing at M$...they give ultimate version for testing, but when
we'll buy some "normal" priced (final)version, a tone of stuff will be
missing...and money wasted...

available in more versions then...

Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, and Ultimate are all found on the same
DVD and have been for a long time now. It is the key that determines which
version you end up with. The CPP Program only received Ultimate keys. Others
get all 4 keys.
