Home Basic x64 or Home Premium x64
Forget for a minute how good or bad Vista is. It's what I'm going with when I build my new system. I have both Vista Home Basic x64 and Vista Home Premium x64 on disk. I have been running Home Basic x64 on a slightly underpowered machine for about six months. So, among other things and because it's been underpowered, I'm no judge to say whether or not it's stable. So I was just wondering if anyone has heard if Premium is any more or less stable than Home Basic?

Use the "Vista Home Premium" as the Basic is a stripped down version to be used on a VERY low powered machine.

Have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...s/default.aspx
