Home Premium. I don't really see the gain in spending twice the price for Professional, I personally don't think you actually get twice the product. Plus I don't see a need for me to be connecting to a domain any time in the near future.

It was going to be Pro for me, but seeing how Pro is only going to be 20 bucks cheaper than Ultimate...I'm on the fence now.

Home Premium for me, I won't use all the extras in Ultimate, I want the discounted upgrade offer but it doesn't seem to be available in Australia.

Well, I am not going to go the upgrade route as I have my Technet Subscription....
Having said that...if I was going to use the upgrade I would go for Home Premium....I mean it has been nice to have Ultimate during the Beta and RC but the reality is that I just don't use the extra features.

Okay, I give up. I thought I had bookmarked a detailed list of the differences between the several flavors of Win.7; however, I can't seem to find it.
Anyone have a clue?
I'm probably going for 2 copies of Home Premium and 1 of Professional. I really don't need Ultimate.
