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.

I don't like too may versions either, however when you are buying Windows is not like buying one Kg or two of apples. You are buying the license to use the software, therefore it makes sense that only the parts you pay for are activated.
You could argue, though, that non activated features are somewhat wasting your disk space, but frankly I don't find that it's a big deal.
