Original Equipment Manufacture

Basically when you buy any type of hardware you can buy an OEM disk which is way cheaper than retail :wink:

If the system has 3 GB of ram or less get 32 bit. More than that get 64 bit as 32 bit only supports up to 4gb (3gb usable) 64 bit is for anything above that.

Thanks Shane where can i get a OEM disc?

Will a 64 bit work on 3GB and under?

Thanks again

Shane:
Yes 64 bit will work with less than 3 GB, but 64 bit uses more memory. So keep that in mind.

and newegg.com is where I buy my stuff.

Hi Shane

I looked at laptops today

1. There are no laptops with Windows 7 only 8, they were asked to send back when 8 came out.

2. Processors i  see are alot of  I7, they are saying they are quad core, is this ok, and are they the same?

3. Any really good brand?

Thanks again

Shane:
I am an AMD fan myself, the intel I7 I here is good.

Just make sure you at least get a quad core or better processor.
