Tech ARP has a collection of dates regarding Microsoft's update program. The upgrade program concerns upgrade paths from Windows Vista to Windows 7, and basically entails that when you buy a Windows Vista machine after July 1 2009, you will get a free upgrade to Windows 7 once it's released. The data also confirm a number of versions for Windows 7.

made a complete hash of it, but basically I was just saying that the anecdote about condom machines does not apply to versions of windows.
i.e. nobody (except fools) are going to feel inadequate when seen buying less than largest (Ultimate).
sigh..I must have left my brain back in 2008

Ah yes, I see what you mean (and agree).
Sadly, there's no shortage of fools out there - or at least people with just enough knowledge to be dangerous. E.g., the folks who will very matter-of-factly tell you that you can't use an ATI video card with a nForce motherboard (or that Intel and AMD processors require different video cards).
I'm assuming that's the demographic that see "Ultimate" in a product name and then go into "Ooooh, new shiny thing" mode.
