- WinXP to Win7: Worth upgrading? - Probably
- Windows Vista to Win7: Worth upgrading? - Most Definitely
- Performance: Vista or Win7 - Hands down, Windows 7 performance is much better
- Performance: XP or Win7 - If you are using a multi-core / multi-proc PC, Win7 is faster than XP
- XP or Vista to Win7 upgrade cost: $120 (home premium), $200 (professional), $220 (ultimate)
- XP to Win7 upgrade path: "Custom" only. Not a true upgrade. Programs & settings lost. Backup required. Re-installation of programs required. Reconfiguration of custom settings required.
- Vista to Win7 upgrade path: Full upgrade available. Programs, files, settings remain intact (although we suggest you still do a custom, backup everything, perform a 'clean' install of Win7, reinstall apps, etc).
- Win7 32-bit or 64-bit: Stick with the 32-bit. Better compatibility. No compelling reason for 64-bit version of Win7
