Well, yes. My initial OS will be WinXP just so I can access all my current apps etc. I have some old stuff and I'm sure some of it won't work.
I'm thinking of setting up a dual boot to Vista-64 or Win7-64 depending on which is available when I have the time to do this. Then I hope to be able to migrate my stuff over to the new system.
I was wondering, is there an upgrade path for WinXP-32 -> (Vista|Win7)-64? And how well does this work? If I got a drive with identical geometry to my current one, I might be able to do a direct copy of the disk over and then go the upgrade route on the cloned drive.
Wow, I see a gtx 280 for $290 and a gtx 285 for $310. The one with the lifetime warranty and a free game is $25 more. Drooooool....
