Well, I was thinking XP because I was pretty sure Win7 wouldn't do a direct upgrade from 2K. If I I do a wipe-and-install, though, I can jump to 7. Then my
concern becomes handling the backup -- although I do have that half-terabyte USB drive I bought a few weeks ago, which will hold my entire hard drive nicely --
and the cost of Win 7. I don't remember seeing how much the professional version costs -- and I'm probably going to need the Pro.
In any case, thanks for the advice, all.
