IMO there is no reason to go 64bit...
If you go by the EULA yes, this is correct. However, if you call MS and tell them you needed to reinstall the OS because of a system failure they will not ask questions and give you another activation code... also, you can generally reactivate every 6 months or so without issue.I was reading somewhere in the forums saying that If I go OEM and need to change MB out Im basically screwd I would have to buy another copy of W7
Well I think Ill go with the 64 bit Home version I don't need all the networking stuff plus if I nee XP mode they I can use my XP disc to incorporate it thx for the help guysHmm ok that's what I was worried about becuase I usually reformat 2 -3 times a year.. plus the hardware failures do to O/C Thanks Guy's OBTW since I dont network would the home version be the best to go with?
