| The Bottom Line | Only software developers and high-end workstation users will see real benefits from Windows XP Professional x64 Edition; everyone else should stick with 32-bit Windows XP instead. | Windows Professional boasts serious corporate administration tools--it's a trustworthy upgrade from Windows 2000. | Windows Vista is essentially warmed-over Windows XP. If you're currently happy with Windows XP SP2, we see no compelling reason to upgrade. On the other hand, if you need a new computer right now, Windows Vista is stable enough for everyday use. | Media Center Edition 2005 is the best desktop DVR app out there, but it's not yet ready to play hub for your digital home. | |
