See, this is the thing. I could understand it if it was a whole entire module that had to be added on. But the code to freaking do this is already in EVERY copy of Vista!!!! All you need to do is make a modification to one DLL and a registry edit and presto - as many simultaneous logins as you want. Same thing with everything else in Vista ultimate - every single copy of Vista sold (no matter which version you buy) has all the features. The license you buy (Basic, Home Premium, Ultimate) just determines which features get unlocked. It's just artificial market segmentation for the sake of being able to sell different "feature" sets at different price points. Which I can sort of understand from a business POV but it sure does make me mad as a consumer. Of course all it takes is one enterprising hacker who figures out how to enable all the disabled features and it's all over.
So, is it possible to unlock enough stuff to turn Home into Ultimate?
