Mike, With the latest costing, Win 8 could be cheaper.. and it's VFP friendly as well.

I'm still designing VFP9SP2 apps on the side. I'm configuring a Dell Vostro 260 mini tower. For the OS, the default is Windows Home Premium. Add $70 to go to Windows 7 Professional. For VFP apps, they should work with the Home version, right? No sense spending the extra $70 if I don't need to.
