Vista's Ultimate advantage
MS-Watch | at | by Mike
Tonight at the Consumer Electronics Show, Microsoft finally gave reason to spend $399 on Windows Vista Ultimate.
Ultimate's value has been hard to justify for the price. A few months ago, I did some comparisons to other products costing $399: PSP and Entertainment Pack (with $10 left over); or PSP Core and Nintendo DS Lite (with $21 left over); Xbox 360 Pro; 80GB iPod or Zune, with $50 left over for a case; 27 months of subscription music service with portable device transfers (at $15 a month); or 266 cups of Starbucks House Blend coffee (at $1.50 a cup).
