Windows 7 with a new PC from Dell by
~~Alan~~[_5_]
So I was on the Dell website scoping out a new PC. I'm looking at a Vostro
220. As of 1/1/10, it comes with Vista and for extra $$$$, I can get
Windows 7. What's the deal with this? Isn't Windows 7 the default now?

Processor Question by
~~Alan~~[_4_]
I have a Dell Demension E510 system, about 3 years old or so. I believe it
is an Intel Core 2 Dual processor and I read (in this NG actually) that I
can run a 64bit OS. Is this so, can I install and run Windows 7 64bit?
Thanks,
