Default Networking Permissions by Vista Edition

I called Geeks On Call to set up a Vista home network and was informed that I
need either the Home Ultimate or Business edition of Vista. Is there any
accuracy to this?

No. All editions of Vista can be used in a home network. There is certain
advanced functionality that is present in Business and Ultimate.

Thanks Jane. At high level, what is the functionality? Does Home Premium
have all the key components for a quality home network?

Hi Keith. Geeks On Call probably didn't understand that you were setting up
a home network. Domain networks aren't supported in some of the home
versions, but that shouldn't have any effect on you.

Thanks,
Gloria
