Question 1

it comes with windows 7? mine did both of them.

Accepted Answer

Yes, it came with Win7.  I believe it was called home premium version. No RDP connection with this version.

Question 2

can we possibly get an upgrade to windows 7 Pro edition on these?

Accepted Answer

yes. i am running win 7 pro with no problems
did a full install. weird things seem to happen when you just do an upgrade. microsoft  ?????
just make sure that you have enough memory
7 pro is a bit of a hog.
also, the intel and amd 64 bit processors have almost the same instruction set .
so far, nothing has jumped out and bit me.

Question 3

Couple questions, is Windows 7 64 bit and does the machine come with a back-up disk ?

Accepted Answer

I'm sorry, I don't recall whether the OS is Win7 32bit or 64bit. I bought it for my son and only had it my possession for a couple of hours. If I had to guess, I would say it was 32bit. It does come with the DVD to restore the system. He uses it for email and browsing, downloading movies and displaying them on his big TV, which he says works well.

Question 4

Can you add a second hard-drive to this PC?

Accepted Answer

Dave  My unit will not accept an additional internal hard drive. I would think there all the same style. You could add a USB external drive if that works for you. Other than that unit setup fine and performs quickly. Mike R.
