Is the Enterprise Edition Media Different?

I hear that you can install any version of windows from any media but I am
not seeing this option with the Enterprise Edition disk. Also I dont get the
option to enter a cd key until after the Enterprise install. The only time I
can is if I wanted to activate windows I see a section to change the product
key. I wanted to test and see what each version of vista has to offer. Before
I make a decision on which version to buy for myself at the end of the month.

Yes, it is different.

The Windows Vista Enterprise disk is entirely different compared
to the retail version of Windows Vista. Please see the following:
