I'm using Windows 7 and Im thinking if I can go for pro x32 version but there had been some bad feedback about it and says its [FONT=&quot]very slow to boot and start IE or just going to any program.

Do you have a 64 bit processor? If so, get that. If not go ahead with 32 bit. I am running the 32 bit version of pro on my netbook and it works fine*. It is slow to boot and start IE, but that's because it's a 1.6 GHz processor with 1 gig of RAM.

*works fine means that it runs tasks well assuming they aren't too processor intensive. Stuff like iTunes will cause it to crawl as will IE (install Chrome and rejoice). This is on my netbook though and is in no way indicative of performance on a regular laptop or desktop computer.
