The question is since I only have the RC do I upgrade or do I buy a new copy?

well I'm pretty sure that RC is not going to qualify for an upgrade because it was free.

If you have a legitimate version of XP or Vista then you can use the upgrade version. Otherwise you will probably need the full version.

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.
I think I understand your question, but I am not certain.

I would buy a full retail version. Complete flexibility and ownership.
 
I am going with both of you here besides I have a drive that I can back up my files on.
