 A Vista for all seasons

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

Microsoft has decided to offer six distinct versions of the Windows update. Here they are from simplest to most tricked-out.
Version Description
Windows Vista Starter Sold
only on new PCs in emerging markets such as India and Thailand. Runs
only on 32-bit machines, and will be able to handle only a limited
number of programs at a time.
Windows Vista Home Basic Comparable
to XP Home. Has the security and search abilities particular to Vista,
but does not offer its fancy graphics or high-end media features.
Windows Vista Home Premium A higher-end option for consumers. Adds support for Vista’s new graphics as well as Media Center and Tablet PC features.
Windows Vista Business Similar to XP Professional. It’s the mainstream corporate OS; also contains extra tools for small businesses.
Windows Vista Enterprise Available
only to customers with volume licenses. Includes all of the features of
Vista Business, with the addition of encryption, Unix services and
virtual machine capabilities.
Windows Vista Ultimate Combines
the features of Windows Vista Enterprise and Windows Vista Home Premium
to offer the highest-end version of Windows yet.

Note: Microsoft will also offer
"N" versions of Vista Home Basic and Vista Business in Europe that have
Windows Media Player removed.

Elmo’s Note: Bakit kaya 6 versions? Yung Windows Xp eh 2 versions lang…Windows Xp Home and Windows Xp Professional. Ok rin kasi kahit papano may mga pagpipilian depende sa pag-gagamitan mo.

High

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

High
The Speaks

Will it ever be?
I’ve tried so hard to find sweet serenity
Are you still afraid?
Just close your eyes and dream, and feel it fade away.

Time won’t flow, everyone knows
When the pain fades away
And dreams won’t die, with tears in our eyes
You’ve got to hold your head up high….

It’s taken some time,
And I’ve given up the will to change your state of mind
Try and understand,
It’s not so hard to see that I am just a man.

Time won’t flow, everyone knows
When the pain fades away
And dreams won’t die, with tears in our eyes
You’ve got to hold your head up high….

Will it ever be?
I’ve tried so hard to find sweet serenity
Try and understand,
It’s not so hard to see that I am just a man.

Time won’t flow, everyone knows
When the pain fades away
And dreams won’t die, with tears in our eyes
You’ve got to hold your head up high….
