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?

E is European. Doesn't come with Internet Explorer.
No. I'm not tempted.

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  _________________  The Pancreas of S.T.F.U. | Never take life too seriously - nobody gets out alive anyway. Disco_jim: um..... I have no excuse. | Chips: Thank the Beef | Rev Dr: Beef, I think i wee'd a little

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... _________________ The Pancreas of S.T.F.U. | Never take life too seriously - nobody gets out alive anyway.
