Just puchased a refurbished Dell PC with Vista Home Preimum with a 64 Bit
processor. Me being naive and not enough research thought that since I was
getting a 64 bit machine that I would get a 64 bit OS.
I've learned (or think I have, a little confused) that Vista Ultimate is the
only OS with 64 bit option. Is this correct?
Also could you point me in the right direction so I can see the cost. I
assume I will have to buy a retail version since Dell doesn't offer 64 OS and
my version is OEM. When I go the Vista page and try to find the cost of
Ultimate it shows upgrade which I'm pretty sure that I can't do. I figured I
would have to do a clean install.
Any tips or suggestions let me know. Thanks,
Thomas
