I rather buy OEM software than an upgrade. It is common that the upgrades cause problems and difficulties.

Shit tell that to me about this. I upgraded from Win98 SP1 to Windows ME upgrade, my Gateway Celeron desktop died a lot of times. Ugh.

When I go to Win 7 on my Gateway FX laptop, I'm taking advantage of the laptop's 2nd HDD bay so I can install a new HDD and put an OEM version of Win7 then perform a RAID-1 so it can boot to either Win7 on new HDD or Vista on original HDD.

I would love to have Win7 Ultimate, but the price tag..OWUCH! So Ill have to take Home Editon.
 
Why compliant about price tag? It's like you will pay a one time fee for a full version of Win7 for many years to come, format after format.

You can get OEM version for cheaper.
 
Well....Why do they have three versions of Windows 7 while there's only ONE version of Mac OS X for everyone. There's other version used for servers, of course. I think they need to make ONE version of Windows 7 for everyone.

It's part of MS philosophy, I believe so.

There's more than 3 different version of Windows but only 3 will be in store or market in US but there's some difference in other countries.

There's different configuration for Windows, Home Premium is more suit for home users and both of Professional and Ultimate is more suit for business and enterprise, also some home users can goes with Professional or Ultimate if needed, I'm go with Professional because of need XP virtualization to run any old softwares that don't support or run so unstable on Vista or 7.

Windows is great for businesses.

Nothing wrong with Mac OS X for businesses either. I've seen some Macs in businesses. Even one of Toyota service dept has Macs.

Why people prefer PC for business because PCs are so cheap to buy but in long run, it costs money to fix.

My work at Enterprise uses PC with Windows with CRT monitors and it's kind of slow because it's running off a server spread to a bunch of networking PCs with no cpu. I believe it's Windows server OS.
