A survey of Windows Vista
There have been numerous articles on Vista but a recent survey at ExtremeTech is one of the best. It is very helpful in answering the question, “Which Vista edition is right for you?” It has one of the best charts showing what features come with each edition and some good discussion. The article concludes:
For most users, Home Premium is going to be the way to go. It offers all the nice UI and media stuff, and while a couple of things in the office versions (like Volume Shadow Copy) would be nice to have, you’re not missing out on much.
That jibes with my own conclusion. After reading all the Web articles and playing with a copy of the RC1 version, I think Home Premium is a pretty clear-cut choice for home users. Of course, if you don’t mind spending several hundred extra dollars just for an operating system, you can go with Ultimate.
