Other than that, Home Premium works perfectly well.<BR /> <BR /> Pro also gives you the ability to join a server domain (used by large organisations), encrypt your file system, run a remote desktop server.<BR /> <BR /> All I can suggest is that you go with 64-bit if the hardware supports it.<BR /> <BR /> Good luck!
