Now I'm sure that most of us have had the email from microsoft regarding cheaper pre-order prices on Windows 7.
What is the difference between the versions? ie. You have Windows 7 Professional E and N, what is the E and the N?
Anyone tempted by the offer and if so which version are you going for?

i've used windows 7 since it was released as a beta and its very good. runs better and faster then vista . Simply put, its what vista should have been. I'll be picking up a copy when its out

One thing is for certain - buying Ultimate is utterly pointless

Because the only features that you apparently get that aren't in Pro, are bitlocker and 35 language packs. Are they taking the piss? Oh, and no 'Ultimate Extras', not that the Vista ones were any good really...
