With the big launch in just a few days I wanted to provide a short comparison of the features and pricing for Windows 7. For home users, we have to recommend ‘Home Premium’ .  The starter edition just won’t provide the experience you’re probably used to. For our business users, we think you’ll get everything you’ll probably need in the professional edition. The price difference is negligible but, unless you’re a gadget geek who has to have it all, we’d suggesting saving a little money.

Features Windows 7 Home Premium Windows 7 Professional Windows 7 Ultimate
Estimated Upgrade Price $119.99 $199.99 $211.99
