    office 2010 pro--clean installl or upgrade?


    Good People,
    On another machine I had made a 100% clean install of Win 7 Ultimate and office 2010 Pro.

    I have another machine with Win7 Ultimate and office 2007 Pro.

    My question is: On the second machine, what are the cons of installing 2010 Pro as an upgrade?

    Thanks,
    karl

    My original installation of Office 2010 Pro was an upgrade and I had no issues at all.

    I have tried both, no problem if you don't use Endnote X3 at the same time.
