Product Description:
Ideal for the basics of home computing.
Windows Vista Home Basic is the edition of Windows for basic home computing
needs. If you only want to use your PC for tasks like browsing the Internet,
using e-mail, or viewing photos, then Windows Vista Home Basic may be the right
edition for you. While it won't provide as many benefits as Windows Vista Home
Premium, it will help you use your PC more easily and more safely than you could
with Windows XP.
The first thing you'll notice about Windows Vista Home Basic is how easy it is
to find the programs and files you're looking for. The instant desktop search
feature looks across all of your documents, e-mails, photos, and other files,
organizing the results in the way that you want to view them. When coupled with
the built-in web search of Windows Internet Explorer 7 in Windows Vista, you'll
spend less time looking for the things that you need and more time on the
activities that you care about.
