<p>On the recommended laptop hardware section, it says they recommend windows vista business edition… if I get vista basic will it affect anything? (connectivity, software, etc)</p>

<p>You can always buy Ultimate/Business from the school as an upgrade later on.</p>
<p>doesn’t make a difference really, the OS that is. Everything you need is right there in Vista home basic.</p>
<p>this is ridiculous, you dont need any specific kind of laptop. vista is complete garbage, if i had a laptop with vista i would downgrade to XP. my mom has vista on her laptop and my whole family hates it, and MSFT’s earnings report for Q1 was really bad partially because of poor vista sales.</p>
<p>get a Macbook, all the cool kids have em.</p>
