Ultimate includes better support for networking,
file searching, and managing folders. It provides
an outstanding environment for those users who
use their laptops both at work and at home.
Improved features include enhanced security from
Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption technology.
BitLocker helps secure all files on a computer,
including system files, so data is protected if the
computer is stolen or lost. The Windows Search
tool provides improved indexing and searching
features to help locate files and folders on your
computer. Because all your files are indexed,
Windows Search does not have to look through
your entire hard disk to locate files and folders.
This makes searching very fast. Search results are
returned almost as soon as you start your search.
After you run a search, you can save searches to a
file so you can use them later.

Windows Vista includes Windows Meeting Space.
Meeting Space provides users with the capability
to communicate between computers in real time
in “virtual” meetings. Users can edit documents
simultaneously, write notes to each other, share a
program on the desktop, share files, and perform
other tasks. Meeting Space can be used
whenever two or more computers can connect
with each other over a network, including a
wireless one. Windows Vista also includes a link
to download the new Windows Live Messenger
program, which enables you to communicate
over the Internet using Internet chat.

The Home Premium and Ultimate editions
include Windows Media Center. Windows Media
Center provides tools and features that help
users get the most out of their entertainment
experiences. With Media Center, you can use
Windows to search your system for media files —
music, pictures, and videos — to play back
music, show picture slide shows, and play back
video files stored on your computer and other
entertainment devices. By adding a TV tuner
card or USB device to your computer, you can
view television shows through your computer
and display them on your computer monitor, a
TV, or projector. Media Center also, enables you
to record television shows, pause and rewind live
TV, and play back recorded shows. Media Center
also makes it easy to burn DVDs or CDs of your
stored music, video, and picture files.

Remote desktop support enables you to access
Windows Vista remotely from another Windows
computer, so you can control your computer
and work with all your data and applications
while away from your home or office. The
Windows Vista Home Basic and Home Premium
editions enable you to set up your computer
only as a client computer so others can access
your computer with Remote Desktop. However,
with the Vista Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate
editions, you can set up your computer as a
client and a host so you can access other clients.

icrosoft Windows Vista is a desktop
operating system designed for both home
