| 816561 | 2009-10-03 20:12:00 | Already using W7 RTM - using Premium, Professional, Ultimate on several PC's. Doing a clean install will be much better, as it has been reported it can take anywhere from 3 -20 hours to upgrade, as shown In these charts (www.winmatrix.com), esp if going from Vista -W7. A Lot will also depend on the PC. |

| 816563 | 2009-10-03 20:28:00 | I will go to Win 7 on a permanent basis when, or if, I feel the need for it. Currently I use WinXP Pro 64 bit and the O/S runs all the applications I need at this time. In the event I did change I would buy Win7 Ultimate and do a clean install. |

| 816564 | 2009-10-03 20:32:00 | Thinking about upgrading from Vista Ultimate 32bit to Win7 Pro 64bit. Would not bother with the "Ultimate" version - there's been bugger all bonus having that version with Vista... | johcar (6283) | ||
| 816565 | 2009-10-03 20:36:00 | Ordered a copy of Home premium yesterday from Ascent and will be doing a clean install on a new comp I built that's currently got the RC version on it, am going 64bit as have been able to get it talking to my print server which was my main concern. I like what I have used of it so far | gary67 (56) | ||
| 816566 | 2009-10-03 20:40:00 | So what MAJOR differences are there between Premium and Professional? | xyz823 (13649) | ||
| 816567 | 2009-10-03 20:41:00 | Any idea on prices? the only thing I can find is here at ascent.co.nz www.ascent.co.nz Those prices on Ascent will be about right - there will be a few places that may be slightly different ( as in lower) and there will be others higher. Looking on My vendors / suppliers sites, their pricing varies from place to place. |

| 816568 | 2009-10-03 20:42:00 | Can I buy an OEM version from Ascent and use it? Or is this limited to manufacturers/suppliers? | johcar (6283) | ||
| 816569 | 2009-10-03 20:43:00 | Dont worry I found it after a 10sec google lol. windows.microsoft.com So XP mode is the main difference. If I really do need it (which I most probably dont) I can just run it in a virtual machine. Oh and the backup system, which I dont need or want to use. |
