Robert McLaw from Windows Now writes: Ed Bott tells us about changes to the Windows Vista EULA. But that's not the whole story. Starting on Page 11, here is a synopsis of what I believe are the most far-reaching changes, as I have interpreted them:

Home Basic

• Can't copy ISO to your hard drive
• Can't install to a network server
• You may share files, printers, etc with a maximum of 5 network devices
• You MAY NOT use Remote Desktop, only Remote Assistance
• You MAY NOT use in Virtual PC | Virtual Server |VMWare

Home Premium

• Still can't copy ISO to your hard drive
• Still can't install to a network server
• Sharing for 10 network devices
• Still no Remote Desktop
• Still no virtual hardware
• 5 simultaneous Media Center Extender sessions (up from 3 in MCE 2005)

Ultimate

• Can copy ISO to your hard drive
• Can install to a network server (I'm assuming for Terminal Server scenarios)
• Sharing for 10 network devices
• Can use Remote Desktop
• Can use in a virtualized environment, BUT
• Can't use DRM-protected content if Vista Ultimate is the "guest" OS
• Can't use BitLocker if Vista Ultimate is the "guest" OS
• 5 Media Center Extender sessions
