Don't get me wrong but for most of us the Vista Home Premum is good for us media gurus nad the business is okay for business travlers and home networks that have a server or domain. besides you can get added software for free such as the free media portal that can handle the media part.

Unless you have a domain and server at home skip over ultimate. Trust me its not worth it. some of us are just impressed with the latest and greatest eating away at our pockets

We just upgraded about 20 machines to Vista Business and it does have Bit-Locker .. Please do your research if you look into the Microsoft Website The business version of Vista has always had bit locker. I know because we have it on our laptops and it works.
