Hi guys I tried to backtrack forum for this topic...I am about to order my mobo etc from new egg and noticed that they sell OEM winX much cheaper than what i could pay for it retail.
my question is I am a novice computer builder i.e this will be my first foray into computer building from scratch...I mainly am building this comp to replace my aging Dell and want it to be able to run today's software and run decent games as well as DJ software.
Will I be shooting myself in the foot using WinX home version as opposed to the pro version? do I miss out on features and stability?
how complex is winXpro I have heard people talking of hard installs and having to know exact hardware info etc...
winX home is slightly cheaper and if their is not much difference I am thinking perhaps its the best choice for me.
Plus what are the disadvantages of OEM software as opposed to full retail box software? just lack of manual etc?
