Upgrade works, but it takes a looong time. Sort of like installing the Service packs for Vista (shrugs). And it kind of makes a mess on the hard drive too. I prefer to clean install and then reinstall my apps. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Too many to list.
OS XP, Seven, 2008R2
CPU AMD, Intel, VIA
Motherboard Various
Memory Corsair, Kingston, etc.
Graphics Card ATI, NVIDIA

Hard Drives Maxtor, Western Digital
Internet Speed 22 Mb/s @ home, 1 Gb/s @ server
Other Info All of my systems still run fastest on XP 32-bit for the most part. Win7 is fun to play with, but I still prefer XP for raw speed, security, and functionality.
