Well, since we're in the Flamer's Corner . . this reminds me. I get a free version of Win 7 Prof. but I can't freaking use it!

Since I'm already using a version of Win 7, I have to use the Windows Anytime Upgrade tool instead of just slapping in the DVD. Well, turns out Windows Anytime Upgrade doesn't support student licenses for upgrades. Great!

"Why don't you just do a clean install?" You might be asking. Well I'll tell you! HP doesn't support this. At all. A lot of my hardware isn't integrated and would require a massive amount of drivers to get going after the upgrade. If I end up screwing something up, I'd be SOL. And I don't trust myself.

Plus, it occurs to me that some Windows student licenses expire when you graduate. Which would blow.

tl;dr I'm lazy / cheap enough to stick with Home Premium.

How is Prof. better than Home Premium? I ask because I'm too lazy to look it up.

Hm. Now that you mention it, besides the stuff I would never use (domain join, XP mode, some stupid backup thing), probably nothing. Unless of course I decide to upgrade my laptop to use more than 16 Gigs of memory.

There was only one thing that Win XP Prof. had that I could have used in the Home Prem. edition: Remote Desktop. That is one handy-dandy thingamabob.

Yeah, we had to get the professional version b/c Enrique needs XP to log into work.
