I think this decision will indeed win over alot of the die hard XP fans... It's a good move on Microsoft's part.. Now if only they'd listened about not making so many different versions.. 
Oh well, I'll still buy a copy of Ultimate no matter how many other versions there are..

Of course we'll have to wait to see exactly what the upgrade will mean money-wise. And I agree with the too many versions, jeez how many do you need. Take the XP systems as a guideline for pitys sake. Of course the final versions are still a ways off so there is no telling what we will wind up with. Microsoft has always played the last minute switcheroo. Remember Long Horn?
