But x64 is always the better choice.

the links on the site take you to microsofts website, and you have to put in product key, when i do, it says:
Unsupported Product
The product key you entered appears to be for software that was pre-installed on a device. Please contact the device manufacturer for software recovery options.

Im a throw this one back up here.

I was reading an article at work and I instantly thought of this post [sad right]
