Microsoft may adjust limitations on Windows 7 Starter

ms_win7 According to Paul Thurrott, Microsoft will be lifting the three running application limit for Windows 7 Starter Edition.
Previously with XP and Vista, Starter Edition was designed to run on low end equipment and be sold in what Microsoft called "developing markets." But for Windows 7, Microsoft moved Starter Edition into the rest of the world and decided to sell Home Basic in the developing markets instead. Starter Edition is expected to be sold on netbook class systems, so even if there isn't a software coded limit to how many applications you can run at one time, the limited amount of processor and memory resources in the computer will continue to be the deciding factor.
