So i'm building my computer this week, got all the hardware, and I want to buy Windows.

But, Windows Home is 100€ & Windows Pro is 70€???

I don't need the features from Windows Pro, but it's cheaper.

Do i need to buy Home and Pro to have Pro, like wtf.

Thanks for the replies :o

lol if its cheaper then get pro

you dont need home first

although it may be cheaper because its an OEM or system builder edition or something

Ok Thanks, just thought it was strange, needed to ask! :D

Windows 10 Pro allows you to deffer updates for a few weeks. So if your the type that likes to make sure the New Windows updates dont screw machines up then go for pro. My friend has pro and I guess he checks for issues in these updates and defers them until they fix the issues. This only works on non critical updates. Windows will auto install all security patches automatically. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
