Windows VS IPOD????
Windows XP Home (for home)
Windows XP Professional (for business)
Windows Media Center (for m-e-d-i-a)
Windows XP 64 (for more power)

Still the only two that joe-user would find is home and pro. Now, if I go into an electronics store or shop online:

mini 4 gb
mini 6 gb
nano (i believe 2 versions of this)
u2 ipod
5 gb
10gb
20gb
30gb
40gb
60gb
some with photos...

comparing all of those to xp home and xp pro...come on, you have way more products and ms has much less confusion.

if someone non-techie goes to buy an xmas present, which is the ipod you want...but if you wanted windows, i bet your grandma could figure out that you need windows xp HOME on your HOME computer...
