Why does it say Windows 7 Pro in the heading and under the Technical Specs Windows 8? Which is it? Thank you.

Because amazon reused the heading form when this computer DID come with 7. Now that everything is 8 or 8.1. They had to change the tech specs.... windows 8 is an ok system. But 8.1 is more user friendly.

This particular model comes with Windows 7 Pro installed and a free Windows 8 upgrade OS disc included, and as this model [originally] came out with Windows 8 installed as the standard OS it shows those specs. The installed Windows 7 Pro is more of an option to cater to those who want it.

Mine ha both on it and you have to choose which to use as your operating system

Mine had windows 7 installed but it comes with the Disc to install Windows 8.1. You can install either system, but can't install them as a dual boot system. Either one or the other.

I believe the Microsoft store is clearing out the Windows 7 version. Amazon is selling the Windows 8 version.

No sure, although when I check PC info, it says Windows 8, So 'm assuming just the consumer version.

The CPU is x64 based processor so I am going to take a wild guess, Yes Windows 8 should be 64bit as well otherwise it will not recognize the entire 4GB anyway but I highly doubt it will be Pro Edition... Most likely Home Edition. --Edit There is no such thing as Home, there is 8/8.1 and 8/8.1 Pro but it is comparable to the home vs pro in previous versions of Windows.

It's Windows 8, not Windows 8 Professional. So it can't be downgraded to Windows 7, if that's what you're looking for.

It's windows 7 from this seller, but there are other sellers which have windows8 on this same device. Usually read product information to be sure, but this one is windows 7.

You can get it with Windows 7 Home Premium, it is model 2311 (as opposed to this model with Windows 8, 2310). If you need the features of Windows 7 Pro, you can buy the "anytime upgrade" from Microsoft, although it's prohibitively expensive. Occasionally they sell on eBay for ~$40. If you live near a MicroCenter, they have the 2311 model for $350.

Yes it is. Windows 7 Professional. It is just a little different than Windows 7 Home Edition.Computer moves fast and is worth the money.

The item I ordered has been upgraded to Windows 7 Pro. It was a rebuild from an XP configuration.

When I purchased this PC in July, 2014, it was Windows 7 Pro. I would check very carefully now because Windows 7 may not be available from manufacturers now. Windows 8 isn't too bad, and with the right start menu software that can be found online for free, it actually works better than I thought. Besides,a free upgrade to Windows 10 will be available very soon.

came with window 7 pro pre-installed, and with a windows 8 disk - I assume there's a downgrade license from window 8 to windows 7 - not sure otherwise

Windows 8 pro is mainly used for multi-computer configurations for businesses and organizations. For home use, there's really nothing in the pro version that would enhance your use of the system by using pro. Hope this helped.

Mine came with Windows 7 Professional installed, and 2 "restore" CDs for Windows 8, or at least that's what they are labeled. Honestly, I like Windows 7 so well that I'm not worried about pursuing Windows 8, especially since this model doesn't have a touchscreen.

The one i received stated win 7 and that is what was installed. I did notice that all the documentation on the system was for win8 so i assume that this is a win8 capable machine that was rolled back to win 7 and am very happy with the machine.

The one I received yesterday actually mounted Win 8.1 Pro. I contacted the seller about this (the technical details indicate that the machine should mount Win 7 Pro) and he promptly said he's going to get back to me on this issue.

Sorry I have no idea about it...The only thing I can tell is I don't like WIN8, so I reinstalled WIN7.
