Default Well, I am finally upgrading....



Gonna be busy for a bit getting them all loaded.

1 will be for my HTPC, 1 for my sig rig (will be a dual boot for a while), and 1 for my dads upcoming build.
All will be 64 bit installations.

Only real question is when I do go to only Vista on my sig rig, what will need to be doen to get rid of XP on boot? Just edit which file?
They will be installed on 2 seperate HDD, so that is not an issue.

I am a bit disappointed they are not SP1 though (unless is just does not say it on the disk or package, but didn't XP have it on the disk?). Oh well.

Just go to the boot loader in you BIOS and set it to the other HDD.

Visita? I thought you were upgrading? (I'm kidding please don't start anything)

But yes, overall, people need to look at this from the perspective of a business and not of an enthusiast. I look at many of these posts and say to my self, "And that type of thinking is exactly why you're not running the business..." lol

To much money for a simple OS DVD if you ask me, Microsoft is a pyramid scam.

It really is not that expensive if you have a hook up. Only suckers pay retail....
Hundred, they are the full version, not the upgrade.

Sorry man, I really didn't mean to start out your thread like that. But it's just seeing 3 boxes retailed at $400 sitting right there... It just makes one think, "How in the world...?"

Yea, I understand. That was kind of the point of the thread.
No matter what I paid, it is still $1200 worth of software.
