How you all think does we need Windows Ultimate back for 8.1 and future versions of Windows? I think that normally Ultimate version is for enthusiasts and Enterprise is for Enterprise customers and it is normally that Hardware testers, IT magazines hardware testers is using Ultimate version for testing. Can we ask back Windows Ultimate version? Any comments?
Since they made media center an "app" now Windows 8 Pro with media center is as close as we're going to get is my thinking
PRO version is like Ultimate (WMC is the item which gets it to the closest). Enterprise is not available for general user and Core is standard version. perfect selection, isn't it?
Yeah and it's unlikely that MS killed a successful SKU just for s**ts and giggles (Hell,I bet that 90+ percent of 'Ultimate' users perma-borrowed it from the internet ).
Not really. Ultimate is like Apple stuff. Paying extra money for a name. The features that make ultimate "more" than home premium or professional are things that people never use.
I use SANDRA for diagnostics and benchmarking, it flags 8 Pro w/WMC as 'Windows 8 Ultimate'. Yes, I know it's tehnically not, but...
