Windows 8 Will Come in Four Versions

After years of confusing consumers with multiple, slightly different versions of the same operating system, Microsoft announced today that Windows 8 will come in only four versions: One for home use, one for business, one for devices running ARM chips, and one for large enterprises that buy in bulk. For most people buying an operating system for a traditional desktop or laptop, the choice will be between just two versions.

The version called simply "Windows 8" is designed for home users. "Windows 8 Pro" is for business users and includes features for encrypting a file system, virtualization, and domain management. "Windows RT" is the new name for what had been called Windows on ARM. Windows 8 Consumer Preview Demo.
