which version of vista

[Guest]

I am one of the beta testers runing RC2 release licensed thru microsoft, my
question is which retail version of vista should I purchase. Can I buy the
upgrade of Ultimate. And also should I do a clean install. I am still having
the problem of every time I open any program I get the windows installer
installing the program first. So I am hoping that will go away when I install
the released version of Vista. Thanks for you help....Mark

depends on which features you think you need. a clean install is always best

A clean install (if possible) is always recommended.

The upgrade license won't be good enough to upgrade your RC2. You can't
upgrade from a beta. You will need a qualifying OS on your drive to use the
upgrade.

To specifically move from RC2 to Vista you will need the full retail
package.
