1) I have Ultimate (Though there is like no real difference between Pro and Ult. If I had to buy one, I would have gotten Pro to save 20 bucks...
2)Random.
3)Damn straight I'm stubborn. People who are right usually are. >=]
4) I was planning on paying for Windows 7, I was simply trying it out to make sure I wouldn't regret it. Once it finished installing, It was fully activated. I wasn't going to pay $200 for a nice box(though I did like the signature edition >_>).
But alas, It's your $50 bucks. You can pay for Windows 7, I can buy Assassin's Creed II.

Jeffrey has a vendetta list??? Wow, I never thought I would witness this side of you Jeffrey. Who else is in that list? Don't worry. You're not on it......yet. Anyway, just to spite Zack, I'm gonna start talking about games in this thread. So to those of you that have window7 already, have you noticed any compatibility issues with older games? I've heard some people saying that some older games have trouble running.

I've only played Starcraft so far and the menus have distorted colors, but the games themselves are fine. I did run into some issues (program-wise) with Ultramon, AVG, and surprisingly the Windows Sidebar. Google told me that there's no more Sidebar on 7 but the process still runs in the background when you run gadgets

Why would talking about video games upset me?
Bioshock in XP compatibility mode was going wonky on me when I try to full screen. I also had to reinstall DMC4 and Deus Ex.
Also, if you have a vendetta against me you'll just have to get in line.

So there are problems. Well it shouldn't affect me too much as long as I can still play my touhou.

touhou works fine.
For starcraft, just make a .bat file with cmd commands.
Also, Zack, why exactly are you running bioshock in xp mode? And why did you have to reinstall everyting?

Bioshock never worked properly in Vista. You HAD to run it in XP compatibility mode. Same for Windows 7. I'm sure it was just 2K/Take Two being lazy...
For Deus Ex it was because the game installed stupid (didn't install to Windows folder, but the HDD's root) and the install wasn't carried over when I upgraded.
DMC4 had some DX10 glitch. I reinstalled and it was all good.
Everything else worked perfectly.

Actually, my friend and I have played Bioshock on Vista without changing the compatability mode. Maybe it was the crack

In regards to bioshock, really? I don't have the game myself, but I've run the demo with no issues.
