Windows Vista Starter
Windows XP Starter Edition was released in 24 languages and was sold in more than 130 countries, but with the launch of Vista Starter Edition, were are expanding our initiative to make our products accessible to lower-income families in developing countries. It will therefore be available in 70 languages, and also feature an option that allows use of the operating system in different languages so, if, for example, a parent wants to use the computer in his or her native language but the household's children want to use it in English. Personally, I think that is an absolutely belting feature. As far as I'm aware, this is possible in the other versions too - I have the Spanish Language Pack installed on my machine too - and because I'm currently learning Spanish, it really is a useful thing to have, and best of all, it costs nothing more!What kind of spec can you expect Vista Starter to run on? Well, get this: Vista will be able to run on a wider variety of processors than its XP predecessor, ranging from Intel's Celerons and older Pentiums to AMD's Duron! Retro or what! That means that Vista will run on a recommended minimum of 300mhz, but it is thought that it will even run on a 233MHz! It will run on a standard SVGA graphics card, and will require a great deal less RAM than the other versions. Now that's crazy! (more)
