What is the upgrade cost to go from 32 bit to 64 bit Windows 7?
I don't think there is any upgrade potential.

Well, OEM installs don't have the same phone home activation scheme anyhow, but I'd bet even the phone home activation would work if the hardware hasn't changed.Can you activation one and then the other later? I doubt it.
Serious answers: On Windows, it's all about keeping up with security software. And it's ridiculous. Modern Antivirus software likely as not will bring a decent Pentium 4 to its knees. Not to mention the number of truly awful Flash applets and web sites that use Javascript in unspeakable and CPU intensive ways. An Atom benefits from being a modern CPU (it's of the same processor generation as the Core i, though obviously a huge, diverging branch from it), but I'd call a dual core a starting point for anyone who wants to run reasonably modern Windows software like a latter day version of MS Office (which it's entirely possible will be set as a requirement for some of their schoolwork; most first year students at most colleges have to take an MS Office class. Yes really.)

It's all about the details, like the spill proof keyboard or fine Corinthian leather.
I had consciously noted a same style of writing/post, but I had not made the connection .... I had pictured/thought Mark to be the type who would be above sock puppetry :-D .... (Anyway, I had wondered on several occasions where he had been hiding, and am glad to see that it turned out to be a case of being not very far away)Was I the only one that hadn't made this connection before now?
It seems that BingBangBop is P5-133XL.I don't get it. One of the posters is the neice?
I thought Tony and time got into a tiffy a while back and Tony went away, likely for good. The joys of drama and sock puppets.
I had no idea.
