    Hi all,

    Just have a question in regards installing Vista.

    Can I also install the OEM version of business vista or do I need to buy the boxed business vista version? :confused: :confused: :confused:

    regards
    MrT

    If your laptop qualifies for the Vista upgrade, that'd probably be the easiest path. Otherwise, you can buy just about any version of Vista (OEM, Upgrade, Retail) and install on your laptop. Obviously, Upgrade requires you install on an existing Windows install. However, there are ways around that so that you can do a clean install with an Upgrade DVD. Google it ;)
