Windows Vista Ultimate revealed
The details of Windows Vista Ultimate
Wednesday, January 10, 2007 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Windows Vista comes in several different incarnations. But essentially there are two pathways -- the home user and the business user. However, at the very top of the pile is the Windows Vista SCU that gives you everything that is in both the top of the lines business editions and home editions -- Windows Vista Ultimate.
The main attraction of Windows Vista Ultimate is that users get all the professional features of Windows Vista Business like domain logon, full backup, full Remote Desktop support, and so forth as well as the full feature set of Windows Vista Home Premium such as Media Center, XBox 360 integration, etc.
But Microsoft sweetens the deal for Windows Vista Ultimate users in the form of Windows Vista Ultimate Extras. Ultimate Extras is an on-going series of downloadable content that allows Microsoft to deliver some outstanding new features to Ultimate users even after release.
This week at CES, Microsoft unveiled the first set of Ultimate Extras including Windows DreamScene, a game, bit locker support, a photo manipulation application, and multi-language on a single PC support.
Microsoft watcher Mary Jo Foley has more details on this below.

* "Digital publications," a bunch of tips and tricks, blog links and other resources for getting the most out of Ultimate.
gives me the sense I would be paying for advertising and spam.
Since I am most likely going Macbookpro it really doesn't matter.
