Microsoft just released the final Windows 8 versions for MSDN members, before its consumer release in october.

Anyway, I am a MSDN member. Today I went to see my downloads page and I found a list of the new versions to be downloaded.

  • Windows 8
  • Windows 8 N
  • Windows 8 Pro
  • Windows 8 Pro N
  • Windows 8 Enterprise
  • Windows 8 Enterprise N

I know the difference between the versions "Windows 8", "Windows 8 Pro" and "Windows 8 Enterprise", which you easily find at wikipedia.

But, I really need to know the difference between these versions and the "N" versions before download one of them.
