ESRI Product Names It can be helpful to think of these as
Product Levels rather than different products. The ArcGIS Desktop
is a family of three products ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView that
share the same core applications, user interface, and development
environment. GIS functionality increases as you move from ArcView
to ArcEditor to ArcInfo.
Slide 3
This link provides an explanation of the differences in
functionality between the levels:
http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/about/gis-for-me.html Each of
these product levels has the same set of core features: ArcMap: The
primary GIS interface for analysis and mapping ArcCatalog: Allows
you to organize and access all GIS information ArcToolbox: Includes
analysis and geoprocessing tools ArcScene: Allows you to represent
terrain in 3-dimensions (psuedo) ArcGlobe: ESRIs answer to Google
Earth, 3D world view Optional Extensions: Enhance the functionality
of the ArcGIS Desktop

There are two primary methods for licensing the ArcGIS Desktop:
Single Use: This option is only available for the ArcView and
ArcEditor product levels. After installation, registration keycodes
are used to activate the software. The license is perpetual and
will run forever (or at least until your next hard drive failure)
Concurrent Use: This option applies primarily to those intending to
use ArcInfo or those institutions running a large number of ArcGIS
Desktop installations. This product works well in GIS labs or
classrooms. This product is installed in similar fashion, but is
licensed through a license server. Product licenses typically will
time-out on a yearly basis. Those intending to install this version
will want to consult with their IT support team regarding the
installation of a license server. The following steps will guide
you through installation of the Single Use ArcEditor product.
