Despite some of the earlier marketing, describing how much simpler the editions became, it's still a cluster-mess.

For example read about problems upgrading to 8.1 for various editions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/why-can-t-find-.... Upgrading to a "service pack" in previous versions of Windows never seemed this complicated.

What is also funny about the 8.1 "update" is also that the system requirements for the 64-bit versions actually increased.
