Choosing The Right Vista!

Category: Tech Stuff

All this time, I’m using Windows XP. Windows Vista has been in the market for some time. Thanks to my job again, I have the chance to touch a bit on Vista. Orange is currently using Windows Vista and he seems to enjoy it a lot. No doubt that Vista looks really elegant and easily grab the attention of the audience. Despite its look, Vista is also recommended for advance security.

Take a look at Orange’s desktop which runs on Windows Vista Ultimate.

There are 6 different editions of Windows Vista. Which should you use and how do you determine its flexibility against your needs? Continue and read the following…

Here is a list of Windows Vista:

(1) Windows Vista Starter
This edition is designed specifically for the technology markets of the developing world. It is, essentially, an affordable edition that’s intended to help bridge the digital divide.

(2) Windows Vista Home Basic
This edition is designed for users who are on limited budgets and who do not really need advanced technical features. Windows Vista Home Basic is not recommended unless it is the only edition you could possibly afford. It may not have all the functions you’ll need in the future, meaning you would have to spend extra money to upgrade your system.

(3) Windows Vista Home Premium
This edition is a huge upgrade from the Home Basic version. It has all the basic version’s capabilities in addition to many more features including: DVD authoring, HDTV support, touch-screen capabilities and premium games. The Windows Vista Home Premium is strongly recommended if you really need a budget operating system.

(4) Windows Vista Business Edition
This edition is is comparable to Windows XP Professional. Aimed at the business market, it has features such as: fax support, a web server, dual processor capabilities, file system encryption and dual CPU support. It can also handle most types of hardware and software. It is a very capable version of Vista, and strongly recommended if you can afford it, and need an operating system capable of handling all of your heavy-duty and business needs.

(5) Windows Vista Enterprise
This edition is basically an upgrade from Windows Vista Business. It offers even more features such as: UNIX application support, multilingual support and BitLocker Drive Encryption. Windows Vista Enterprise must be purchased directly from Microsoft, as it is not available in any original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), or any retail stores. This edition is only recommended if you need it to operate a relatively large business, or to handle massive amounts of data and information.

(6) Windows Vista Ultimate
This edition is the most technically capable of all the Windows Vista editions. It has all of the features and capabilities of Vista Home Premium and Enterprise. In addition, it also includes several more features called “Ultimate Extras.” Windows Vista Ultimate is also capable of handling two CPUs as well as more than 128 GB of RAM memory. Talk about overload! Windows Vista Ultimate is recommended if you are willing to spend as much as $260 and deal with an incredible amount of computing.

Conclusion, for average user, Windows Vista Business is a choice for its value. If you want the best, aim for Windows Vista Ultimate, of course. ^_^

    I agree that vista is more secure because it really pissed me off at first that every action you do on vista require confirmation. But if you have Spybot S&D like I do, you’ll get used to it eventually :)
    Gotta love the Aero Vista looks.

    I heard it’s still not very stable. I’ll stick to Xp for the time being. Perhaps until a few more service pack is out. Microsoft is well-known for its security loop holes right? SO I’m not gonna take this risk. Ha =)
