Hi all, I'm going to be building a budget gaming system (my first build ) in about a month and have been doing loads of research to get ready. I'm going to be going with Vista Ultimate 64 bit as the OS. My question is, would you guys recommend I get the system builders or just spend the extra 100$ and get the retail? Given that OEM can only be installed on one machine and retail being able to be installed on 3 different, is retail worth the extra 100? My thinking was that in 3 or 4 years when I go to Windows 7 if i get retail vista, if I build another machine, I can just get the upgrade version of 7 and save myself money in the long run. I was just curious on your guys thinking of OEM vs. Retail. Any comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
