The Home Premium Edition will cost $239 with a suggested upgrade price of $159; Home Basic will cost $199 with upgrades likely to cost $100; while Vista Ultimate will retail for $399 with upgrades likely to come in at $259. Businesses looking to make the switch from XP to Vista will need to shell out $199 for an upgrade, or around $299 for a retail version.

repute me for this dude :D

Tell me it in Rupees not in dollars!! My Friend Wants it. And what about the list of hardware for his computer?

I don't think so there is any C2D for 4Ghz.
You won't get any good UPS for 1000.

By the way, what is the total file-size of Vista Ultimate? Also, whether there are two separate versions of Vista Ultimate for 32bit and 64bit or it is a single one?

Actually I wanted to mean what is the DVD Disc-size of Vista Ultimate. Also whether the Vista Ultimate DVD for 32bit and 64bit are same or different? If different, then what is the file-sizes of the respective DVDs.

All editions of vista come on the same DVD in just one package. It is the serial key that unlocks either of the four packages.

32bit and 64bit come in separate packages, not sure of the file sizes...
