| 556891 | 2007-06-07 06:19:00 | Well, what would you like to do? Email, photo editing, instant messaging.. Give us a few details. Windows XP Home is alright. The free but technical alternative is Linux, not so user friendly for beginners. |

| 556895 | 2007-06-07 06:32:00 | It all depends on your hardware as to what your PC is capable of running. If its fairly modern XP will work, if its as old as the hills it probably doesn't have enough grunt or HDD space. |

| 556896 | 2007-06-07 07:08:00 | If it has heaps of power go for Vista. Don't get Home Basic though. | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 556897 | 2007-06-07 07:21:00 | Don't go for vista, just yet!! Give it a few years... You may find any older programs you have, or even some older hardware might not run. If you have old stuff and want vista, get them to install it for you before you buy it. (if the shop doesn't or can't install it you are buying your compter from the wrong place to start off with) Otherwise XP professional will be around for a long time yet. |
