Could anyone please tell me what the difference is between Windows Vista home basic and home premium?

Many thanks
 
Many thanks, there doesn't appear to be a great difference then! :shrug:
 
Unless you really need to buy vista, I'd hold off for Windows 7 (or download the beta), it's already a much better operating system.
 
I have both at home and the only reay diffrence is the media center stuff.
 
Windows Vista 32bit is a 32bit patch of a 16 bit patch of an 8 bit operating system originally written for a 4 bit processor by a 2 bit company that cant stand 1 bit of cometition.

I would second that, I work mainly on macs but I have a couple of windows comps, one with vista home p and the other with windows 7 RC which is a lot better than vista and it's still just a RC. The startup, shutdown general functions are improved a lot and I'm running it on a fairly low spec laptop.
They've certainly done something right with the windows shell.

I would wait for Windows 7 :)
 
If you are running 64bit then the maximum memory is less in basic than in premium
