Computing is now an expectation in day-to-day life, in almost the same way as TV. How can one operating system blend the eye-candy, plug & play needs of the home user with the crisp efficiency needed by commercial [etc] users? Take a good look at the real world, Microsoft, and understand that soap opears are of no interest in the boardroom and most home users do not watch "Financial Report". Windows 7 business needs to be a distinctly different animal to Windows 7 Home Premium. There's always Ultimate for those who want both! The underlying problem is the growth in the consumer market.

Windows 7 business needs to be a distinctly different animal to Windows 7 Home Premium. There’s always Ultimate for those who want both!

And the reason why they shouldn't start over from scratch is because of the thousands of companies that spent millions of dollars for compatability to vista, would have to spend that much for the new OS. It also would not be a wise move for Microsoft as it will lose a lot of customers. But we'll see, windows 7 will surely be integratable with windows 7 mobile :) thats what im looking for! @comment 3, windows 7 has a lot of new features planned/ in testing thats worth the upgrade.
