Windows 7 Home Premium
Windows 7 Home Premium is one of the two Windows 7 editions that will be sold worldwide to retail markets and OEMs. The other edition of Windows 7 is Windows 7 Professional.
Microsoft has build the editions to include features that "smaller" editions do not contain.
This is in contrast to Windows Vista where more expensive editions missed some of the features of less expensive ones.
Windows 7 Home Premium is a complete edition of Windows 7 unlike Windows 7 Home Basic or Windows 7 Starter which have been limited by Microsoft.
