I am purchasing the vista home premium or ultimate this week, i am getting the oem version from newegg with the win 7 coupon. My question is will it solve vista memory usage issues, the windows 7 rc that i have is fast and runs efficiently, however in ancient times when i used the upgrade option from 98se to xp, it was kinda crappy had 98se problems and xp problems. I put the service packs on my cousins computer , and vista is still a bit of a resource hog, anyone in the know?

It's usually best to do a clean install rather than an upgrade install.

You can buy the upgrade version and do a clean install with it, though. No reason not to take advantage of that coupon deal.
Your proposition may be good

Whatever it is, I’m against it!
And even when you’ve changed it or condensed it,
I’m against it.

Here's a link to an article about how to do a clean install with the upgrade media: http://www.winsupers...grade_media.asp
