I'd go with 7 unless you have a touch screen... Everything I work with is Pro but that's because of domain networking.
Looking at http://winsupersite.com/article/windows-7/windows-7-product-editions-a-comparison-128684 the two big differences I can see between Home Premium and Pro is the memory limit (16 Gb vs 196 Gb) and Windows XP Mode included in Pro. Until Later! C. Hatton Humphrey http://www.eastcoastconservative.com Every cloud does have a silver lining. Sometimes you just have to do some smelting to find it. I'm on a new contract and it looks like I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get myself a new laptop. What I really need is knowledge as to what features I should go for. I'm thinking Windows 7 rather than 8, but what version of 7 do I go for? standard, home, pro, etc? Whatever way I'll be going 64 bit which means I'm looking at 8 or 12 gig of ram. Sound right? I'm also thinking an SSD primary drive for the OS and a secondary 'normal' drive for apps and all - or should I just get a standard drive and not worry about SSD. Any and all feedback, suggestions, tips, whatever is appreciated. I'm currently living on an old Lenovo x61 that a good friend had given me. Its been a life saver but is starting to show its age.
