Windows 7 contains multiple versions. I believe many people already know that in our actual use, due to psychological factors in obtaining piracy, many users often choose the top-end Windows7Ultimate Ultimate, but we have to ask, the flagship version is true. the suits our needs? is there a better?
the above question may seem odd, because when the Ultimate Windows7 most high-end version, without a doubt "the best." There is nothing wrong, but at the same time we have a sentence called "the most suitable is the best", specifically to each of our users, the flagship version must be the most appropriate? First not busy with the conclusion, we look:
Windows7 contains a total of six versions, namely: Windows7Starter Starter Edition, Windows7HomeBasic home Basic, Windows7HomePremium home Premium, Windows7Professional professional Edition, Windows7Enterprise Windows7Ultimate enterprise and Ultimate.
Next, we take a look at several versions of what's the difference:
Windows7 Windows7 Starter Edition is the most low-end version, does not appear in the retail market, aimed at In the netbook market and OEM market, if there is no Aero effect, it is acceptable. The lack of 64-bit support and the inability to change the background of the desktop will greatly reduce the usability of this version. Therefore, the author believes that for most users, the preliminary version can be excluded. Out of our use.
Windows7 Home Basic Edition is a simplified version for Microsoft's emerging market launch of Windows7 Home Edition, already has a wealth of features, such as support for multiple monitors and mobile centers, as well as support some Aero effects, lack of Functional components include Tablet support, remote desktop, media center, etc., while Home Basic can only join the HomeGroup.
from the functional, I believe that Home Basic For most home users, already enough to use, but, despite its name Home Edition, but for many Chinese businesses, especially small and medium For enterprise users, it is still practical. The reason is very simple. First, the Home Basic Edition is the lowest price among all Windows 7 retail versions. The official retail price is 399 RMB, which effectively reduces the cost of the enterprise. Secondly, some Aero effects are missing in the Home Basic Edition. It is not necessary to create functions such as home network group and tablet support. It is an unnecessary function for ordinary employees in small and medium-sized enterprises. Once again, after simplifying a large number of functional components, Windows 7 Home Basic Edition is greatly dependent on hardware. The performance of PC hardware can be better utilized.
Windows7 Home Premium Home Basic compared to an increase of more feature-rich, support all desktop effects, support for media center, set up a home network, etc., but does not support XP mode, Windows domains and multiple Language. The official retail price is 699 yuan.
can say, Home Premium already includes home users can use the various functional components, such as in environments with more than one PC you want to set up a home network, the user can select a set of Home Premium and Several sets of home common editions achieve the maximum functional requirements while saving costs as much as possible. At the same time, since the home version of Windows 7 has streamlined many functions that are not required by home users, it does not significantly reduce the performance of the PC hardware and affect the user experience. The author believes that for most users, if you consider genuine, the home version of Windows7 is the most cost-effective choice.
Windows7 Professional Edition adds many enterprises functional components, such as Active Directory, domain, remote desktop, network backup, location-aware printing, Encrypting File System, Presentation mode, WindowsXP mode, the official retail price of $ 1399 Renminbi. This version of the feature has been enriched to meet the daily work needs of almost all enterprises, Microsoft's positioning for the professional version is in the enterprise environment or Windows enthusiasts, but if you have not heard of the above new features, It won't be used (in fact, for many office PCs, their job is to read and write documents, print documents, and communicate), then, as mentioned above, the home version is also qualified for our corporate environment. Demand, we do not need to increase investment, in a corporate environment, there are several PCs equipped with Windows7 Professional Edition enough to meet the needs of the application.
Windows7 Windows7 Ultimate Enterprise Edition and there is no difference in function, the reason is divided into two versions is the only authorized way and related applications and services. These two versions have all the functional components of Windows7. Of course, the author also needs to remind netizens that it is precisely because of the richness of functions, the flagship version also greatly increases the hardware performance consumption. Before choosing, you need to first Can you use these features for enterprise data sharing, management, security, multi-language package support, UNIX application support, BitLocker Drive Encryption, BranchCache, etc? If you only want to meet the "most complete" requirements Is it worthwhile to choose a system with 90% of the functions that are not available? More importantly, these features that you don't need will also consume hardware resources. If you want to experience the flagship version, you will spend a lot of money to upgrade the hardware configuration of the PC. There is no doubt that it is extremely unwise. Therefore, the author believes that users must consider their application needs when choosing the flagship version, and do not blindly obey, resulting in a significant decline in the use experience. Of course, for companies that need to use the flagship features, the comprehensive capabilities can meet the business needs of any enterprise.
