Sorry if this has been asked a million times, but which Win7 should i go for?
At the moment i have Vista Home Premium, and want the equivilant of it. I know that Win7 comes in Premium, but that doesnt mean its the same kind of spec as Vista Premium is. |

Agree with the others Home Prem should be fine for you, unless you need XP Mode or the ability to connect to a Domain
Or want to install more than 16GB of RAM |

Especially when I got Pro on a student discount for $30.00US I would go with pro, networking is a snap and I like it. But if you have the Mula to blow, go for ultimate! |
