Which version of Vista do you use to study for 70-620?

Vista comes in different flavors

Home Premium
Home Basic
Business
Enterprise
Ultimate


Which versions will cover all the topics on the exam?

I'm guessing home basic and home premium might not have all the features tested on the exam.


Thanks in advance

    Ultimate has all features so is best to go for.

    Would the Home Premium be suitable for the exam?

    My guess is Business, Ultimate and Enterprise will probably suffice.

    Refer to: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsvista/editions/default.mspx

    There is a download at the bottom of the page that lists the features very nicely. I personally used Vista Ultimate, as that has all the bells and whistles. The MSPress book includes an evaluation copy of Vista Enterprise, so that should suffice for your studies.

    I used Enterprise edition, as we have a software assurance agreement with MS which gives us access to Enterprise over Business :)

    Oh and there's an Enterprise evaluation for VirtualPC at the Microsoft site too which would be more than enough for the exam to pass. Business doesn't have Bitlocker but Ent and Ult do.

    Did you actually get a CD with the MS Press book? I know I didn't and many others didn't either even though the book often referred to it.

    I didn't buy a copy of the MSPress book, I was just going by what is shown on the cover of the book on Amazon (the upper right corner says it comes with a copy of Vista Enterprise).
