About this tag
The tag 'premium ready' refers to the Windows Vista 'Premium Ready' designation, which indicated a PC could run the Aero interface. Internal Microsoft emails from 2006 reveal confusion even among executives like Steven Sinofsky about whether 'Vista Ready' guaranteed Aero capability. The tag covers discussions around misleading hardware requirements and the distinction between basic Vista compatibility and full premium features.
