Hello FLE,

If you're not in any hurry or need the Ultimate edition, then you might as well wait for Windows 7. It is scheduled to be released sometime in January 2010, but rumor is that MS is pushing for before Christmas.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Ok tnx, yea Im such a bone head I forgot to tell everyone that I was just going to buy it just to have it. I know this sounds crazy but im 36 about to be 37 and im retired. No im not daddy warbucks but I do have sizable amount put away. And yes it does help, thank you again for being so kind to me. Your the expert here, if you say wait, I will wait then.

That is just my opinion, so if you just wanted it to play with, then don't let me stop you from having fun with it now.

If you've never used a 64bit OS before, then I'd suggest going ahead and getting Vista x64. That way, when Win7 rolls out, (past the beta, I mean), you'll be ahead of the curve and know a little more what to expect, what works with it and what doesn't.

I mean, no sense blaming Windows 7 for stuff that doesn't work with it if you knew it didn't work with Vista beforehand, ya know?
