I realize Microsoft has to price segment, which requires they call out an "Enterprise" category for Mobile and Laptop/Desktop, but sometimes I wonder if they really need all of these categories.
For example, do they really get significant financial value from having a Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Education, Windows 10 Pro? particularly as they are offering it as a free upgrade to Windows 7/8 users.
Notice they don't have a Windows 10 Mobile Home, Windows 10 Mobile Education, and Windows 10 Mobile Pro - just plain, "Windows 10 Mobile".
My suspicion is they would have managed to avoid customer confusion, and captured pretty much all the same economic value, with a simple list of:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Mobile
Windows 10 Enterprise
Windows 10 Mobile Enteprise
