Just a few questions concerning WIndows 7 Home Basic vs. Home Premium.

QUestion 1:
Is there any performance difference between WIndows 7 Home Basic versus WIndows 7 Home Premium??? Just a hearsay...someone mentioned WIndows 7 Basic is slightly lags behind Windows 7 Home Premium.

QUestion 2:
How to enable the FULL Windows Aero in WIndows 7 Basic? Any patches to "unlock" the FULL WIndows Aero in Windows Basic?

Question 3:
SInce WIndows 7 Home Basic limits the user to 8GB of RAM, is 8GB RAM sufficient for the foreseeable future?? Trying to future proof my laptop here.

Reason for asking: GOing to purchase a new Lenovo Y580 IdeaPad laptop -

Thanks alot....

P.S.: Please don't flame me for posting this on a WIndows 8 forum........

Thanks alot for your reply.

Concerning answer 2; do you know where to get those tweaks/ patches to enable FULL AERO in Windows 7 Home Basic???

PM me please...if you have any....

ANother question....which is totally unrelated to this.

This is concerning whether we can swap the license key for windows 7 home premium (32 Bits) for windows 7 home premium (64 Bits).

I have with me a license key for a WIndows 7 Home Premium (32 bits). The funny thing is the license key comes in a box with only 1 CD ----------> being Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit installation CD ONLY instead of 2 installation CDs (being both the 32 Bits and 64 Bits).

SOmeone, somewhere in the web universe mention that we can use the license key meant for a Windows 7 Home Premium 32 Bits to activate a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bits.
