Come on, this release is aimed at people who have never used computers before, do you think the 3 processes and 800x600 limit is of so much importance? I feel this is a welcome move, it will allow people to buy a computer for about 10k legally, even if windows application compatibility is necessary for them. If anti piracy laws were made a little stricter, I am sure this will become very popular.
Just take a look at the poll started by tuxfan about Windows XP SE vs Linux, even in this forum, where computer experience is high, there are some people who would choose windows starter edition over linux, if there was no option of piracy.
