    Windows 7 is a def. upgrade, but my friends told me that you must have at least 4 gb of ram to run it smoothly.

    keep in mind vista takes 2 gb to run smoothly, and since 7 is a lot more efficient than vista, it should be fine with 2 gb. keep in mind it can run on a 1gb no problem.

    so 4gb is more than enough

    $30 o_O dam.. too bad I don't have a college email or whatever to get it :p
    O wel.. got it for free from my friend that had MSDNAA -^_^
    Windows 7 will run fine on 1gb ram, but 2gb would most likely be recommended, but it would depend on what version of Windows 7 you get anyways. Windows 7 Starter.. runs on 1gb RAM which is made for netbook

    I'm wondering.. what version is this? Home Premium?

    what do you mean there are two versions, from what i know there is only the "upgrade" for $40 USD for Canadian institutes and $30 for USA insititues; people have to understand that the FULL version will allow the user to do a "clean" or "upgrade" install whereas the UPGRADE is only for "upgrade" if you are eligible...
