Upgrading isn't the way to go these days. People used to upgrade because they wanted to keep files that took them a long time to obtain on their PC.
Well, now you can have your cake and eat it too. The simplest thing to do is just partition your hard-drive. Put Vista on the partitioned space and you can choose between which operating system you want to boot-up into. The added benefit is, not only have you kept all of your files from the old operating system, if Vista acts up for some reason, you've still got the perfectly functioning XP on a separate drive to boot into. :)

No, you get the same OS, it's just less expensive if you already have Windows XP. However, if you do buy the upgrade, read up on how to do a clean install using the upgrade disc. You never want to actually just do an upgrade of XP, you'll end up with a buggy and messy installation. I've attached a link explaining how to do this. Hope this helps!

Nothing really, as far as functionality is concerned. The upgrade is intended for people who have aprevious version of windows on their pc. Microsoft figures they will give you a price break since they already got some money out of you already. The full version is intended for fresh installs on a new pc with a clean hard drive. Both versions are identical in operation though, so it is best to go with the upgrade if at all possible.

Get the full version if you can afford too.
And you might want to make sure your PC is Vista ready,
before you buy.
It would be a drag to get Vista, and then discover you would have to spend mucho $$$$, to be able to run Vista propertly.

preparation is sweet, because of the fact it teaches you the variety to earnings, a thank you to self-discipline your strategies. awareness for a Christian is understanding the interest, understanding your God, His nature, His will, His outlook on issues. understanding is finding at issues from God's attitude and putting them into action. awareness is super, yet too lots of it could puff you up in case you do not counteract it with fruit of the Spirit. Ever comprehend a individual who's very knowledgeable, yet has no temperance and no love? Their awareness is especially much ineffective interior the long-term. yet understanding? you detect that and your soul shall stay, because of the fact once you detect understanding, you detect the way God Himself seems at a undertaking. Proverbs 3: by potential of understanding the Lord laid the earth’s foundations, by potential of information he set the heavens in place; by potential of his awareness the watery depths have been divided, and the clouds enable drop the dew.
