Windows 8 Pro is for the PC enthusiast and business/technical professionals. It includes everything found in 8 plus features like BitLocker encryption, PC virtualization, domain connectivity and PC management. Definitely geared
Windows 8 Enterprise (The Enterprise)
Includes all that Windows 8 Pro has, but geared towards enterprise customers with Software Assurance agreements.
Windows 8 RT (ARM or WOA)
RT (Windows Runtime AKA WinRT) is the newest addition to the list of Windows editions. It is specifically designed for ARM-based devices like tablets, ARM-powered PCs and any other devices that support the ARM architecture and are designed to run Windows 8 RT.
The nice thing about Windows RT is that it offers device-level encryption and the touch-based Office suite as part of the operating system, so you won't have to go buy a copy of Office or worry about data exposure.
