Well my laptop is vista, and my desktop is XP. So im better off getting the one to replace xp then? because i use my desktop more than my laptop Link to comment
Wrathek Posted October 21, 2009 Content Count: 1839 Joined: 09/28/08 Status: Offline Share Posted October 21, 2009 you're better off with the full regardless. it can do upgrades OR straight format. i never understood how they get off acting like being able to format from the disc is worth an extra $100+. PM if you'd be interested in said full version, you'd have enough money left to buy several games or a new graphics card etc. Link to comment

ReGIONALS Posted October 22, 2009 Content Count: 1844 Joined: 07/27/08 Status: Offline Share Posted October 22, 2009 Of course. Piracy = $0. There are many ways to get it for cheaper. But if you want a legit copy and not get jailed for piracy, you would have to pay ~$130. And that link above is for System Builders, that means you get 1 time install. If you get a virus (or another reason) and need to reinstall the OS, you would need to buy a new key. not true http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116677 this i what i got when i got a new hard drive for my old computer and ive formatted on that one twice and ive formatted on this one twice and have had no problems what so ever.
