Only three concurrent processes – can’t imagine why anyone would!
And I’m running Ultimate on my Sammy with no performance issues – so a manufacturer installing Starter Edition will only be down to the cost of the licence 🙁
Speaking about Linux, Pavel said it was now unlikely the company would make a Linux netbook, but added that Samsung would do one if users demanded it: “[Linux netbooks] made a certain community very happy.”

M$oft are just begging for more users downloading cracks 🙂
[/quote1238058346]Whilst I wouldn’t condone such activity – I have no doubt you are right. A great opportunity for the bad guys to get malware onto 1000s of netbooks right from the start. Such a shame.
Sort it out Microsoft!
I wonder how they will be able to count the processes?
Like at the moment my system runs 10 or so as system, 10 as user and only one is a process started by me 😉

I doubt it would be long before someone will figure out how to start programs and make the processes look like they belong to the system therefore bypassing the 3 application restriction.The starter edition may be acceptable if it is included on dirt-cheap netbooks (say sub £200), but something with the capability of the new Ion chipset (maybe a dual-core Atom) deserves better.
I read somewhere that if you are using your browser to ‘listen again’ on the BBC website, for example, that is two out of your three allowed processes ~:(
