Brazil is the sixth country in line for a Windows XP Starter Edition, Microsoft's nationality-specific versions of stripped-down Windows offered at lower cost to appeal to first-time PC buyers.
The Starter Edition is Microsoft's attempt to battle software piracy and free or low-cost Linux distributions in countries with low average household incomes. Microsoft began naming countries to get the cut-rate edition in August. Other countries offered Starter Editions include Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia and India.

Windows XP Starter Edition has several limitations. PC users can only have three programs running concurrently and only three windows per program open at the same time. The maximum screen resolution is 800x600, and there is no support for PC-to-PC home networking, sharing printers across a network or establishing more than one user account on a PC.
