win7 professional? Why not Home edition?

Very close to what I got.

Get a GTX 550 Ti for video, a 60-100GB SSD for your OS and a 500GB for your programs and data.

Arrr!

win7 professional? Why not Home edition?

Because Home Edition does not support XP mode.

And because I can backup to a home network.
