Quick guide to Microsoft Windows 7 versions

The Christmas season is fast approaching and a lot of people are thinking about buying or upgrading their PCs. But most people seem to forget that they also need an OS on their new system and looking at the Microsoft Windows 7 versions list it can get very confusing sometimes.
