FWIW, I recently built a desktop computer and used Windows 7 Pro. I love it. You can purchase an OEM version of Windows 7 Pro in either 32 or 64 bit versions for around $139. The Home verion runs $109. The caveat is that you get zero support from MS if you have problems.

It loaded to both of my systems with zero issues. The Pro version supports Windows XP as well if that's important. I don't believe the the Home version does.

Also, look at the MS Office Home and Student edition. It includes full blown Word, Excel, and Powerpoint for around $130.

Try Newegg or Micro Center for current prices.
