Читать книгу Windows 10 All-in-One For Dummies - Ciprian Adrian Rusen, Woody Leonhard - Страница 75

You can dismiss three regular Windows editions and both Windows Mobile editions out of hand:

 Any Windows 10 version in S mode may work for a little while, but I’ll bet you bucks to buckaroos that you’ll get tired of it shortly. S mode is great in schools and places where admins want absolute control. It’s onerous for people who have a choice. You can’t even run the Google Chrome browser in S mode. Plan on ditching it as soon as you can.

 Windows 10 Enterprise is an option only if you want to pay through the nose for five or more Windows licenses, through the Volume Licensing program. Microsoft may change its mind — either lower the price for small bunches of licenses and/or make the Enterprise version available to individuals — but as of this writing, Enterprise is out of the picture for most of you. There are some tricks, but in general they aren’t worth the hassle.

 Windows 10 Education, similarly, can be purchased only in large quantities. If you’re a student, faculty member, or staff member at a licensed school, you must contact the IT department to get set up.
