My new laptop is loaded (in the mail now) with home premium 64 bit but if all goes well it will replaced in short order with Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit.
 
Win7 Enterprise 64 (free, of course. Have to get something out of this expensive college education). Had it for a couple weeks now and really like it. And for reference, it is the same as Ultimate. XP Mode seems pretty cool too, though I have not used it for much. Dual booted with XP for now (probably until summer, as I have a lot of programs to switch over for a full reinstall and I don't want to do that during the semester).
 
Windows 7 Professional. At just $30 through the student upgrade deal, it's the obvious choice. There's nothing I need or want from Ultimate that would make it worth the large increase in price.
 
Running Windows 7 Professional, I didn’t need everything that ultimate came with. So far I am really pleased, it’s a big change from running XP.
Plus I picked it up during the presale in June for 1/2 price, ( although not for free like some of the lucky S.O.B's here)
 
Windows 7 Ultimate x86 Core2Duo, Pentium 4 3.2ghz HT, Core2Duo laptop

I know now the benefits of running the 64bit version but the x86 one works fine for me. I may install it some day and try it out and compare. I read that with 4GB or more RAM, it gives you more of your memory. However Win7 Ultimate x86 on my Pentium 4 with 4GB of RAM is giving me 3.78GB of usable RAM that is more than plenty since I'm not using that as a gaming machine. Then again, that is a 32bit cpu anyway come to think of it. I am hoping that my core2duo board will allow me 8gb of ram upgrade with no headache and at which point I'd be installing Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
 
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit... because one copy was $50 and I'll be receiving another for free. Will probably buy a 3-pak to cover the remaining machines, then give the extra copy to my father.
 
One laptop and one desktop running Pro, and then an HTPC running RC Ultimate - but it'll probably drop to Pro some day.
