You failed to mention some important facts:
Unlike the Vista versions, this is a fully tiered structure. Windows 7 Professional includes EVERYTHING Home Premium has, PLUS the business functionality, and Enterprise/Ultimate includes ALL of that, plus additional functions. So unlike the confusion Business vs. Home Premium caused with certain features being in only one, 7 keeps every feature as it goes up the line.
Also, to cancel out the confusion of all those versions, the only ones any average joe will see are: Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate as a rare bonus with certain packages. Three versions is pretty darn simple, and since there's no longer a downside to a higher version, there's no feature confusion. Home user? Get Home Premium. Need to join a domain or host remote desktop (just like in XP Pro)? Get Professional. Enterprise is irrelevant to home users, as it's available ONLY as a VLK for large businesses, and Ultimate's identical but without the VLK.
Three versions works for me. As long as pricing's reasonable I have no complaints.
