    Microsoft should just create 3 lines.

    Standard - Kills off most of the legacy support baggage and performs well. More stable. This has always been the source of the issues with Windows, even if 7 really did a great job of cleaning many things up.

    Business - Legacy supported remains for all those businesses who still try to run software for win 98.

    Server - Offered as it is now.

    RT is trying to do this (kill legacy), but it's going about it in a limited and confusing fashion.

    • Windows HQ want to know when you can start work. Is Monday AM good for you?pang
    • Not sure if that's sarcasm.. but really it's the business world that holds home users back.ETM
    • Business editions should be more than adding encryption and remote access options to the home version.ETM
    • Sarcasm, yes. But as a compliment-type sarcasm. I agree with you ETM, MS need to re-focus on the end user.pang
