Windows N versions do not contain Media Player. It can be installed after the OS installation but it is not present as as a defult component. (In compliance with the European Commission Decision - goes back to XP. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886540).
Windows K has neither Media Player nor Windows Messenger. (In compliance with the Korean Fair Trade Commission order).

N = No media player
K = Version for Korea
