Announcing the Windows 8 Editions ⇥

For PCs and tablets powered by x86 processors (both 32 and 64 bit), we will have two editions: Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro.

All editions of Windows 8 offer a no-compromise experience.

Multiple editions for ostensibly the same experience?

Windows Media Center will be available as an economical “media pack” add-on to Windows 8 Pro.

But not Windows 8 non-Pro? seems like a compromise to me.

By the way, this is the actual chart you’re supposed to use to determine which version is right for you.
