i would have ogdc before, but i see no reason to not when its hardly any more money at all ya know
i guess i should say why not then?

because its a lot of excess crap that you need to uninstall/manage

like what?

@ John

Is that just like a download for 7 Home Premium or do they send you the discs [etc]? Because if I buy a new PC it's most likely coming with that already installed; would have to go through a "gaming pc" company or build my own to not have software already installed (pretty sure Dell, etc. doesn't let you select that you don't want preinstalled bullshit on your PC).

probably a download, but its an ISO file that you burn to a cd so its the same thing essentially
yes if you bought a premade pc it would have an operating system pre installed, so theres no point in purchasing an OS now if you are buying a prebuilt pc some time in the foreseeable future

lol, Windows 7 Upgrade program (for shits and giggles on this PC) says:

You will need to perform a custom installation
Your graphics card will not be able to run Aero
Your computer does not have enough storage space
Windows 7 will no longer include Microsoft Outlook

at least thats the way the beta/RC was

custom install just means you cant have it automatically upgrade everything for you
aero is shit, i dont use it, extra flashy graphical desktop = performance loss
lol hd space
lol microsoft outlook

I use outlook

what do you do when you need to reply to an email when you dont have your pc with you?
webmail or gtfo

blackberry or computer on campus

leave a copy of msg on server = I can reply from webmail also

outlook at work

at home i log onto comcast but i fucking hate their interface


prob gonna use thunderbird again

lol comcast

guess i should go with qwest
above comment is pure sarcasm

When you upgrade does it reformat or will I keep data

ie i dont manage anything with vista ultimate, have had zero issues outside of drivers

vista -> 7 you can upgrade
xp -> 7 you need to reformat

Yeah you're right task, I guess I'm just a fucking idiot then huh?

I think all my shit is 64 bit, task will that pose a proalbem

huh? for what?

if you use 64 bit programs, proalbey shouldnt downgrade to 32 bit

dosnt 64 bit manage memory better, more smoother? what needs to be uninstalled? be specific you terrible ex plainer.

Run many Windows XP productivity programs in Windows XP Mode.


Connect to company networks easily and more securely with Domain Join.


In addition to full-system Backup and Restore found in all editions, you can back up to a home or business network.


Help protect data on your PC and portable storage devices against loss or theft with BitLocker.


Work in the language of your choice and switch between any of 35 languages.

I don't know everything is in Program Files(x86) not Program Files so p sure that means I'm using 64 bit for errrthing

yes 64 bit architecture interfaces with memory better

x86 is 32 bit

that means you are running a 64 bit OS but most of your programs dont utilize it

I don't think anything is in the reg one LOL. So I should upgrade then huh

for 20 bucks i dont see the downside really, yea i wont utilize most of the features

you are running everything x86 instead of 64, donno what youre pooping about

my antivirus, ventrilo, world of warcraft
are the only programs i run 64
everything else is x86

just switched over to vista myself(ugh)

that computer looks sweet though

Mayb ill get the comp

And only one version/license for the windows 7 for 15$, cant even get a 2nd for my desktop...time to get some m8's to buy a copy and give to me imo

shit son, ill be campin

7 rocks. vista sucks. get 7. its ftw

call MS, tell em you have a copy of 7 you are reinstalling and it is saying the license is in use, (ofc you have to be installing it and getting this message) they will ask for some code that pops up, you give it to them, they give you a code. That = free license. Has worked for me 3 times when XP came out and 4 times since I got Vista Ultimate 64.
Guarantee it will work again once I get a copy of 7 ult 64


ps find me a $15 copy so I can avoid the hassle
