I have the opportunity to get Vista Ultimate 32-bit for $80 via student discounts. Right now I'm using XP. Are enough of the bugs worked out of it yet? I don't really do much gaming except for WoW a few months out of the year. My computer specs are as follows:
AMD 64 3000+
1 gig DDR 3200
Radeon X700
My rig's obviously a few years old; would Vista still run smoothly on my baby?
Thanks for any and all info.
EDIT: Is there much difference performance-wise between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions?
EDIT 2!: After doing some more searching on my school's website, it looks like I can get the 64-bit version for just a few bucks more. Both of these choices are upgrades, not the stand-alone full installs. Any differences between upgrades and full OS's these days? I remember back in the days of Windows 98 that the full OS was more fully-featured than the upgrade.
