Selecting the Right Microsoft Windows 7 Edition

today we will talk about the Microsoft Latest Operating system Windows 7. many people were hoping some thing extra from Microsoft windows 7, lets see they will be successful or not. First of all we shall talk about the editions we have available of this new Operating System release by Microsoft. It is a rapid upgrade from windows Vista because very soon Microsoft ending the support for Windows Vista even Windows Vista was very popular among the people. From the last few years Microsoft when ever release an Operating System they consider the the user classes and launches for home users and for professional users. Same like here Microsoft launch Windows 7 with several classified editions for different type of users. This time Microsoft also classified the region and some editions are only available for European Union and some for underdeveloped counties only.

List of Windows 7 product line

Windows 7 Home Basic             (Underdeveloped countries with limited options)
Windows 7 Starter                      (For basic users)
Windows 7 Starter x64               (For basic users who are using 64 bit processor)
Windows 7 Home Premium       (Little advance from basic users)
Windows 7 Home Premium       (For basic users who are using 64 bit processor)
Windows 7 Home Premium N    (This version is only for European Union)
Windows 7 Professional              (Edition for Professional users)
Windows 7 Professional (x64)    (Edition for Professional users who are using 64 bit processor)
Windows 7 Enterprise                  (Edition for Enterprise  users)
Windows 7 Enterprise (x64)        (Edition for Enterprise  users who are using 64 bit processor)
Windows 7 Ultimate                    (Ultimate solution for 32 bit machines)
Windows 7 Ultimate (x64)          (Ultimate solution for users who are using 64 bit processor)

so you can see here is lots of edition available for choice. In the market you see laptops of different brands who they are offering Windows 7 starter version and   Windows 7 home basic and Windows 7 upgrade from Widows Vista is also offered by Microsoft. I think you are confused by the editions offered by Microsoft. Don't be confused, take a deep breath and I shall tell you which edition is going to fulfill your needs.
For starters Microsoft designs a Windows 7 starter. It Is very basic edition with very limited options. Graphical user interface is same but many option like explorer live preview, aero UI, flip 3D, live task bar preview, app locker, direct access, multilingual interface and many other features are not available.  If you are migrating from Windows Vista to Windows 7, do not worry Windows 7 is not going to overlapping any feature sets and with a little understanding with a new environment you can get a powerful product for you.
If we look back little on release of Windows Vista we can see there was no Media Center in Windows Vista Business edition so that not make any sense that a business user did not need any multimedia facilitated operating system. In Windows 7 you can see a rich media support from Microsoft and it is very welcomed by standard users. Windows 7 is also available for professional users with a combination of professional support utilities and professional environment. Enterprise edition is also very demanding among the people who are responsible for Enterprise solutions setups. Classified releases of 32 bit and 64 bit making sense because if you have a 32 bit machine or 64 bit machine,you are now clarified about the choice of your Windows 7.I hope you will be able to find your type of Windows 7.
After the decision of required edition of Windows 7, we have to check the compatibility issue. Compatibility for two major divisions, first is Software Compatibility and second is Hardware Compatibility. So lets start with hardware compatibility. Its is very economically critical for you if you buy a new operating system and after installation you find that your printer, sound card,display or any other device is not working with current operation system. This is also very discouraging for a new user and a professional. For this issue Microsoft make Windows 7 with a larger database of drivers and Windows XP and Windows Vista Drivers compatibility. It like if you did not found driver for your device which is specially written for Windows 7, you can install a Windows XP or Windows Vista driver version and in 90% cases Windows 7 accept it and run your device so we can say Hardware compatibility is nor more issue for Windows 7 and many hardware manufacturing companies are updating websites with Windows 7 Compatible drivers for their products. It is a good sign that most of old device can run with Windows 7.

Software also offers similar challenges for Operating System. If I have a customize software for my enterprise or for personal use and after the installation of Operating System if I am not able to run on it, I shall be not happy. Windows 7 have largely compatibility with 32 bit software and even you can run better on Windows 7 plate form. We have heard some issue regarding security software running on Windows 7 because of new security features of Windows 7 some time not compatible with older security software but Windows 7 have great feature which name is "XP Mode" and with this mode you can make compatible many software which give you any issue to run in Windows 7 environment. You can even run legacy 16bit software in XP Mode. People are not migrating too much for 64 bit environment. Mostly organization who have to create their own ERP or any custom made solution they are migrating. Currently at sales graph we can see Windows 7 (32bit edition) on the top. At the end I want to put here word of moth which I have heard by the people and reading comments about this new Operating System by Microsoft it is a great user friendly solution but need to tune-up with the passage of time.

Windows 7: Will It Benefit Your Business?

Everyone's talking about Windows 7, but will it benefit your business and should you invest in an upgrade?

Known as ‘the new efficiency', Windows 7 will allow you to do more than before, and what you could do before becomes even more efficient.

Before going into more detail, here is a summary of the offerings afforded by Windows 7: 

• Simplified navigation
• Greater security and less risk from spyware and malware
• Better power management for laptop users – batteries last longer and laptops run better
• The ability to set different firewall and security rules in different parts of your network and locations such as public areas away from your office
• A memory store for network settings of different locations, which can be easily called up
• Built-in system back-up (on some versions)
• Improved compatibility with earlier versions, so you can continue, for example, to work in Windows XP applications

WHICH VERSION?

There is quite a range of versions so you must choose carefully, not just with current needs but with future usage in mind. Selecting the wrong version now could mean a lot more expense later should you need added features as your business grows.

There are six mainstream editions of Windows 7 available in two different versions.  Upgrades are also available, but choosing the right version is likely to be a very complicated exercise.

The three most popular versions are all available on new computers and in retail boxed form: 

Home Premium: This supports Aero Interface, DVD playback, media centre, Internet connection sharing and IIS web server, while other Home versions do not.  But you cannot join a "domain" (Server) with this version which means every PC in the work group will have its own security settings; something not so bad for home use but not conducive to good business networking practice.

Professional:  As the standard business edition, this is the cheapest of the business versions. It supports the features mentioned for the Home Premium version, plus remote desktop hosting.You can join a "domain" (Server) with this version which allows for central security, meaning you as a business owner has full control over your staff logins and permissions.

Ultimate: This version includes all features and the only difference between it and the Enterprise version is in the licences offered, as Enterprise is for volume purchases.

Windows 7 Enterprise is the same as Ultimate, but is only available on a volume licensing scheme. At the other end of the spectrum, Windows 7 Starter is for netbooks only, and is only available from retailers and on new computers.

FEATURES

There are six main features of an operating system (OS). Here is a summary of how those features work in Windows 7 compared to earlier versions:

System speed

Although technically 7's operating system isn't any faster, the whole system is widely believed to ‘flow' better than Vista, ensuring a better experience. There is an improved performance on multi-core processors and laptops especially are said to run better.

Memory

If the ability to efficiently run a number of applications at the same time is of importance to you then you'll need as much memory as possible. It's therefore useful to know the memory capabilities of the various versions. The 32-bit editions of all versions support up to 4GB of RAM. The 64-bit editions vary, running from 8GB of RAM on the Home version, to 16GB on Home Premium and 128GB on Professional. If you are in two minds about what you might need, talk to us.

Ease of use

There have been a number of replacements and removals made in relation to Vista and XP, including significant changes to the task bar and the Start Menu.

Security Centre has been renamed Action Centre which encompasses both security and maintenance of the computer. As is the case with most new systems, such changes may be disorientating at first, but will easily be picked up.

There are new touch and handwriting recognition capabilities. Aero Snap is a drag feature that makes viewing and comparing open files easier, particularly good when you are working across multiple screens.

Compatibility

There is a marked improvement in application compatibility across all versions. In the Ultimate and Enterprise editions, there is the ability to run a (licensed) virtual Windows XP machine meaning 100% compatibility with Windows XP.

Software

Ultimate Extras are gone in 7. Four programmes that previous systems had – Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, Calendar and Windows Mail — are not included, although they are available in a free separate package (Windows Live Essentials). There is a calculator with scientific functions and advanced features. Otherwise, the software applications are virtually standard.

Power management

This means the ability to select options which can cut down on electricity wastage from idle hardware, etc. This is greatly improved in 7 and on the laptop version, batteries last longer.

Security (internet safety and file back-up)

This is the most impressive area of improvement. A multi-network aware operating system allows for different firewall and security rules depending on your location: making your firewall policy stricter in a public place (an internet café for example), but giving you a less strict policy in the office, which would allow the in-house functions to work better.

The system can also remember network settings for different locations, meaning if you move around with your work, your laptop will more easily adjust to different environments and locate peripherals such as printers and scanners with far more ease. Security alerts are also more detailed.

To buy or not to buy?

If you are buying a new PC or laptop then Windows 7is definitely the best option. However, if you are considering an upgrade and you are not sure about whether to invest in Windows 7, whether it would be right for your business or what version to choose, contact your IT support company who will help save you money by making the right decision for you.
