Question Upgrading to OS Windows 7

Since I'm a web designer and use my computer for a business, should I upgrade pro edition or will home edition be ok? I'm not sure what the differences are.

You could check Microsoft.com and see if there is a comparison list between Pro and Home edition of Win7.

I would wait several months to see what the reviews are. Microsoft is always trying to make money by changing their OS often, and it may not be good the first time around. Wait a few months to have everything "polished out" on their software... reviews will be out by then and you can make a decision.

I'd agree with Sophia, just look at their comparison list. As for waiting, there's really no reason to. I'm a software developer/web developer and upgraded to Windows 7 before it was launched to the public (it launched first to members of the MS developers program) and I have had 0 problems with my upgrade. It's a lot faster than Vista, easier to use, and it looks a heck of a lot better.
