After objections from European antitrust officials, Microsoft have stopped plans to use the name 'Windows XP Reduced Media Edition' for the version without Windows Media Player / associated media functions that it was ordered to sell in Europe. Apparently the Commission is concerned that the name is uninspired and consequently will have the affect of being unattractive to customers.

So what would you call a version of Windows with reduced media functionality ?
