Which version of windows 7 do you use?

Home Premium, Ultimate or Professional. If anyone has pros and cons I'd love to hear them. Thanks!

Windows 7, Home Premium...No cons...like my vehicle, it runs every day without any hiccups. Now when that changes, it's time for an upgrade.

I was forced into this new version a couple of years ago when I upgraded two Dell laptops, Windows 7 already installed on these.

But it was a nice 'forced'. Same, same reasons. Had been on Win XP so huge jump into the 21st century. But, easy.

Recently upgraded computer to Win7 Prof. Interesting that I'd heard XP Prof. was being phased out. I was at a major hospital here recently, and they're using XP Prof. LOL

I think that people and businesses use what works, is not broken and doesn't need fixing until the day comes that something needs to change. Then, that change requires an overhaul, and that is how I missed Vista (thank you Lord!) and had to go to Win7. That hospital will have its moment as well.

XP was a great OS.

Most major business are just now moving to 7

They have different licensing and get support years after home bases and smaller business users do.
