Which windows 7 version?

[OpenToSuggestions]

I will use the 64bit install.

Is W7 home premium good enough for a semi-pc enthusiast?

I have checked the MS site and I am concerned that the XP mode will be of use and that the networking is missing? (My pc is on a home network).

thanks

Home premium includes networking, not convinced about XP mode mate, I went for pro purely for built in backup and remote desktop

Thanks for the reply. Is the shake thingy any good (shake the mouse)?

I do want premium, but the price difference is HUGE!

EDIT: I never did try the RC of win7. Vista is ok but a bit slow.
