The Vista starter pack was essentially created for developing markets and had many features stripped to keep the cost down. In fact, it is even more basic than Vista Home Basic though if your needs boil down to Web surfing and such you'll not miss much using the Starter pack.

Vista Home Premium, on the other hand, includes multimedia features for entertainment. For more powerful machines this is the better option to maximize the hardware investment.
