  Each task can be displayed or hidden to users by setting certain conditional parameters. Conditions are interpreted every time the Welcome Center is started. If no condition is expressed, then the Welcome Center displays the task by default. Conditions are cumulative, meaning that the sum of all conditions expressed is used as display logic.
  Conditions are expressed by a name and can contain a set of parameters. Each condition belongs to the shcond://v1 namespace. They are, therefore, expressed as <condition name="shcond://v1#%conditionName%">.
  Each condition can also be inverted by using the invert="true" attribute. For example, to display a task in all versions of Windows Vista except Windows Vista Ultimate, use the following condition.
  <condition name="shcond://v1#SkuEquals" invert="true">
  <parameter name="Sku" value="Ultimate" />
  </condition>
  The following table shows available condition names, parameters, values, and descriptions.
