I bought 2 HP laptops in September,as discussed in this thread:
http://www.computerforums.org/showthread.php?p=973254#post973254
I ordered it with Vista Home Basic,thinking I could free upgrade to Windows 7.
I guess I didn't read the fine print...it said something like: computers purchased with Vista Home Basic are NOT eligible for FREE Windows 7 upgrade.Somehow I missed that.(noob)
So,now I'm all hot to upgrade,but not sure the best (cheapest) way to do it.
Do I upgrade Vista Home Basic to Vista Home Premium,then get the free upgrade to 7? or.......?
And should I upgrade to a 64 bit system(processor is dual core) ?
And what benefits will I see with the 64 bit OS ?
