hey guys. new to the forum and kinda noob at everything related to tecnology. basicly, i've been using ubuntu for the last 2 years on my laptop, Installing ubuntu was easy for me, cause you just have to download the official .iso from their site, its the only one, and the most updated one, so no big researching on the internet for the most updated version. when i tried looking for a W7 copy i came across too many different .iso's eventually i found out that you can try W7 enterprise version (which is same as ultimate version, so great thing i guess!) for 90 days downloading it directly from microsoft site i downloaded the 32 bit version iso and im almost ready to burn. i just would like to ask some question before proceding. Can this version be actived with the daz loader? Is it updated? it must be, because its from the official site. right? the name of the file is 7600.16385.090713-1255_x86fre_enterprise_en-us_EVAL_Eval_Enterprise-GRMCENEVAL_EN_DVD.iso Do you suggest me to proceed with this version, or i can find better on the internet?
is there a linux version of this upgrade advisor? btw i just have 1gb ram, i think 32bit is what i need. is the 64 bit version much better?
"better" is not really the word. more like correct/incorrect 64 bit version is to address more RAM - if you have 1 GB then running 64 bit is pointless and the added overhead will actually result in slower operation the question to ask yourself when choosing between 32/64 bits is: "Is there any chance I will ever be installing 4GB or more RAM?" ...although things get a little weird between 3.5 and 4GB
