Does this mean you CAN'T use a higher SKU than Starter
from the Win7 lineup? Do we know if you could use Home Premium and limit what gets installed? Obviously this would increase the price more than a little bit, but if it appeases those who must have Windows because otherwise they'll be returning boxed software to the stores till their heads spin, then it's worth looking into as an option.
