Microsoft To Release Six Versions Of Windows Vista

Microsoft plans to release Vista in six editions, including versions for business, home, a low-priced version for India and other emerging companies, and a version for sale in Europe that does not include the media player, in compliance with European anti-trust rulings.

Microsoft plans to disclose the lineup for Vista Monday, after it inadvertently posted information about its packaging plans for the software on its Web site last week. Microsoft's new PC operating system will arrive in two editions for business customers, three editions for home users, and a special low-priced "starter" edition for sale in India, Russia, Mexico, and other developing countries.
