Windows 7

I’ll be buying Windows 7 for compatibility testing on my MBP and wanted
to know if one edition (Home, Premium, Ultimate) is preferable for
testing. The Home edition seems like the way to go but I thought I would
ask.

Thanks,

Todd

The usual difference in the past has been networking limitations or lack of Exchange server support. Not sure about 7.

Good choice as all you are doing is checking your websites and not doing

Buy the cheapest version no need to spend the extra $$$ on stuff you will never use.

I did not want the hassle of running Windows on my MBP so I bought a Compaq box with Win 7 preinstalled with 2Gb of Ram from Staples for $250. It sits in the corner and I fire it up whenever I need to check sites in the different Windows browsers.

I thought about doing that for the same reason you mentioned, but since
I travel frequently having everything on one system seems best for me.
