Here's a nice little breakdown of Vista and it's different versions. Basic is just as it says BASIC. You get email and surfing. Do yourself a favor get at least Home Premium. If you need Remote Desktop then Business or Ultimate is your best bets. I haven't used the new Media Center that is in Home Premium and Ultimate, but I love my Windows Media Center 2005. If your are interested in Windows for the Media Center component then get the Fastest, most Powerful machine you can afford. More power now, means fewer problems later. I'm currently running Windows Vista Business. While it seems to be stable enough it is a bit slower than Windows XP on the same hardware. I'm defintely leaning towards the ULTIMATE version. I love the Media Center capabilites and Remote Desktop is a feature I can't live without. Which version do you want? Why do you want it?

Classic Snake Game Redone
This is an updated version of the classic snake game. Use the arrow keys to direct your snake around the screen. Eat the mice, just remember not to hit your tail or go off the screen. This one was incredibly frustrating for me. The controls are very touchy, be careful.

QWERTY Warriors
Learning to type isn't always fun. This little game I found can make it at least a little more interesting. It's kind of a shooting game. You are in the middle of the screen and these spaceships and robots come at you. At the bottom of each enemy it has a word. Type the word correctly and hit enter and it kills that enemy. Give it a shot. Sure can't hurt, might even help your typing skills.
