Windows 7: There Will Be No Ultimate Extras

When Vista was launched, Microsoft has proposed the Ultimate edition
It had two main characters: all the features of all editions and bonus
extras, which were intended for regular outings. It was a question for
Microsoft to reward those who decided to pay for the license of Vista
Ultimate by offering content that was only them and no other edition.

The Vista Ultimate Extras: a disappointment
It must be said that this famous Ultimate edition was still sold
almost 600 euros in its infancy. It is found for a while now at a rate

nothing more.

And Microsoft does not repeat the mistake. Does this mean that the
editor it will accelerate the rate of release for Windows 7? No, the
firm opted for the opposite solution: there is simply more Ultimate
Extras. Why choose radical? We can say that the firm no longer want to
be bored with such details because exactly a criticism on the
permanent rate of release of these small animals.


No Extras in Windows 7
Anyone who has tested the public beta of Windows 7 have noticed this
lack in Windows Update, where the famous ships Extras:

capacity to continue to issue features outside the regular cycle.
While our main development team is focused on the arrival of the next
version, our support team responsible for updating existing
functionality. Accordingly, we do not expect to create Ultimate
Extras. "

Demonstrated a reduced rate?
Everyone will go his opinion, but the reason Microsoft is
understandable if it does not, paradoxically, the complete abandonment
of the Ultimate Extras. The reason is that a number of elements of
Windows is removed to be placed in a different cycle, such as Windows
Mail client in Vista is Windows 7.
