The only reason I got this instead of Win 7 Home for my main home desktop is that Win 7 Pro also includes the ability to act as a remote desktop host. To be clear, every version allows you to run remote desktop to view another computer, but only Pro and Ultimate allow you to act as a host computer for a remote desktop session. It is very stable and installed very easily.

I am a fairly well educated person who is handy around the house. It took a 25 minute call with Microsoft customer support to get the box open. Customer support had to pull up a diagram and walk me through 18 steps.

We have several computers in our house and had been running XP just fine for a number of years. We upgraded our computers this year and they came loaded with Vista and a free upgrade to Win 7. Vista looks beautiful, but constantly crashed and had tons of errors. We got the upgrade DVDs this past weekend and easily upgraded several computers to Win 7 HP. This has the good looks of Vista and the stability of XP.

Bitdefender has been a popular brand name for internet security for a long time, and this is a TWO-YEAR license for up to 3 separate PCs. Really a great value!

I am working with Rosetta Spanish (Latin American) at the moment and have this one waiting in the wings. From my experience with the Spanish, I can say hands down Rosetta is the best language-learning system I’ve ever seen, heard about, or used – period. Pricey, yes, but definitely worth it. I am continually amazed at how quickly I am learning, how much I am learning, and for that matter, how enjoyable the process is.

I work for a technology company. This is the brand my employer uses, and our techs all rave about how good a job it does.

Back when we owned only one computer, McAfee was the anti-virus software we used. After my husband became a certified system engineer and our home network grew to rival that of some small companies, McAfee remained the brand we counted on. We still do. This is an excellent suite of anti-viral and utility programs and a great value for money. In a word – well, two words – buy it.

My son used this as additional practice while he was taking required language courses over two semesters in college. So it wasn’t his only instruction, more just a supplement. The benefit was worth the investment of time and money. He got A’s in both classes. :)
