Windows 7 Professional or Home Premium?


Don't forget a power supply.

If the topic was read correctly, I'm getting a 500 watt power supply for free

dunno if using a used PSU is a good idea ..

The PSU is in my lap right now, looks pretty new, only has a bit of dust in it

Probably the ISO, because then you have a digital copy that you simply burn to your own disk.


Goddamn my mom is so paranoid about returns and defectiveness

Outlet PC's return policy seems pretty shady to me, what do you guys think?
