You don't need to buy Vista Home Basic again to switch to 64bit Vista, you just need the x64 installation media (your license is equally valid for both). So if you're happy with Vista Home Basic you don't need to spend any money, apart perhaps from what Microsoft charge for replacement media. Otherwise if you feel like splashing the cash get the Windows 7 upgrade.


Yes he can.

Not to worry, borrow a 64bit version then use your key to activate.

I have both Vista Ultimate on my laptop and Win 7 Ultimate on desktop. :D

But personally go for WIN 7 ultimate.

I have had nothing but problems with Vista, and hardly any with Win 7 and i have been using it since the first beta version was released;)

chotic_UK, Hi your probably better off selling your copy of vista and using that money to go towards windows 7. All the windows UI's are all very simalur so it won't take long to pick up plus what I said in the above post is true for most!
