Animated backgrounds and a couple other things are Ultimate only.

Yes, but to get the full visual effect that is one of Vista's biggest selling points, you need to have ultimate.

I think the biggest problem with vista was the fact that it was such a system hog that if you didnt have the most recent hardware with lots of memory it just wasnt as pretty as it was billed.  That along with the fact that you had to shell out a couple hundered to get the Ultimate version, made it very unfriendly to the marketplace.

I just hope they stick with this naming scheme.  The idea of coming up with new odd names is just a pita.  With this format it will be easy to keep track of which version came before which for the years to come.

They just require a MB with SATA (or IDE whichever they make them, but I think they are all SATA) inputs, thats all.

I agree, you do have the right to do stuff in the car that totaly distracts you from your enviorment.  Seriously, who cares that you are driving a 2 ton hunk of metal that can kill a person.  Sending a text message is so much more important then stoping the car and taking a minute out of my life and making sure that I don't kill someone or seriously hurt them.  I also think we should lift the ban on drinking and driving, everyone knows you drive safer when you are drunk anyway.
