[X4U] Which version of Windows with VPC?

[Phillip Zannini •]

Hey Jim,

I just picked up VPC 7 today, upgrading from 6.1.  HUGE difference on my
1GHz TiBook.  If you can squeeze the few extra dollars it will be well worth
it in my humble opinion.  VPC 7 at the moment comes with XP Pro.

Hope that helps!

Best regards,
Phillip
