Windows 7 Editions Become Further Defined :: TweakTown
Quote:
Microsoft has shed a little more light on what will define each edition of Windows 7:- Windows 7 Home Basic and Starter editions will be limited to 8GB of memory.
- Home Premium will allow up to 16GB of memory
- Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate will allow up to 192GB of RAM.
This shouldn't affect the average consumer, but enthusiasts will probably want to make sure they can utilize all of their memory should they be using more than 8GB.

They should have had a mid-range version with the higher memory support and without all the useless crap that you usually get on the ultimate editions.

Microsoft: Pirated Windows 7 Will Still Get Updates
Did I read that right??
WTF is wrong with MS?? They don't seem to be bothered about leaked Betas & now they say illegal copies will still get updates
I think someone must be due a kick up the backside

Windows 7 RC is now up on MSDN & Technet if anyone has access to it. XP mode beta is also there too
This should mean that a may 5th public release is on track for us mere mortals

Windows 7 (build 7100 Release Candidate x64 bit)
With these services disabled I still had approx 30 services running in the background consuming 700-900 MB of memory. This wasn't a problem with 6GB of DDR2 memory installed and a Windows 7 Experience rating of 6.0
I will probably switch to W-7 when I'm forced to, right now I see nothing to persuade me to fork out $200-300 for it when it's released. It looks nice is about all I will say.
Aero = Enabled
Windows Animations (eg, slide, fade effects, etc) = disabled
Widgets = disabled
Indexing = disabled
Security Center = disabled
Defender = disabled
Windows Firewall = disabled
Windows search = disabled
Tablet = disabled
Print Spooler = disabled
Superfetch = disabled
System Restore = disabled
Windows Update = disabled
