Again Micro$oft miss the point - a revenue based model of functional groupings. For example, user 1 may want to watch TV and browse but user 2 may want to create music in a commerical environment - these both require different multimedia deployments. MS came close to a usable model with Win2K Pro vs Win2K Small Buisness Editon - I deployed SBE for my exchange solution & pro for workstations. I want my OS installations to be configurable - from a single installation. IU want my server installation seperate. I don't want a per module base model which is revenue driven. 3 packs - 1 for home, 1 for buisness & 1 for server control - end of story.
