Summary: Upgrades are never as good
Date: 2008-10-31 - 
Comment: Generally speaking, to get the best performance from any operating system a clean install of a full version is recommended. The best choice is to choose a full version of the product and enjoy the benefits of not being left with artifacts and leftover's of your previous operating system which can lead to instability in certain cases. I would only buy this on a limited budget.
Summary: What I am using now.
Date: 2008-06-13 - 
Comment: As much as I like Vista, and I do have Vista-64 on my media computer, I still like using XP-Pro on my work computer. It is solid as a concrete highway without fast running water under it (in other-words, it does have its vulnerabilities), but far better than any other windows product out there.

Summary: Ripped off
Date: 2007-09-30 -
Comment: The version of the software was an OEM version that was only valid when installed on a new computer direct from the manufacturer. It required a volume licensing agreement which a stand alone user would not have.
Apparently this company was trying to pull a fast one. Don't buy anything from these people.

Summary: What Can You Say, It's Microsoft

Comment: Review not necessary, outstanding product. If you are running Home Edition, I would recommend upgrading to XP Pro, if you can afford it.

Summary: Do not buy this -- Remote Desktop is buggy in this version
Date: 2005-07-24 -
Comment: I bought this upgrade specifically to use remote desktop -- however it does not work. There are many reports on the web re. Remote desktop black/blank screen no login dialog box.
I have used remote desktop on other machines & connections without problem but there is clearly a problem with many connections using the version in WindowsXP sp2. Microsoft has not acknowledged the problem, produced a KB article or a fix for this yet. My suggestion is to avoid this until at least XP sp3 is issued. Concensus seems to think this is due to a poorly designed/implemented remote desktop protocol -- apparently it does not handle fragmented packets.
[Some have found changing the MTU size from 1500 to 1400 using a third party tool fixes it for them. However this did not work for me.]
