    Windows 7 for Netbooks


    Hi,

    Does anybody know if there's a Windows 7 for a Netbook?

    I found one online, but it's an older version. Nothing final.

    As always, many thanks in advance.

    I think Windows 7 Starter is suitable for netbooks, you can see the differences between the editions here:

    There is a Windows 7 starter edition which is what any netbook running 7 will have on it. Here's a link.

    I use Windows 7 Ultimate on my little netbook. Doesn't need a "special" version.
    See "Other Info" in specs for my netbook.

    I'm gonna buy a netbook this week that comes with Starter on it. First thing I'm going to do is upgrade it to Home Premium.
