I would recommend Home Premium unless you need to be able to Remote Desktop into your Home PC as Home Premium does not come with this feature, for that you will have to purchase a business edition (which do not include any of the media center features or the new Aero interface) or Ultimate edition, which includes everything; however, it will cost you an arm and a both legs. As for stability I can say that I have been using the Release version of it for about 2 and a half months now and have not had it crash once on me. The biggest problem you will run into will be Device Drivers. Microsoft has done a good job with integrating drivers for things such as Printer and Scanners but I would recommend running the Upgrade Adviser (you can download it from somewhere on microsoft.com) and running that first. It will let you know what hardware and software might cause problems. Also check hardware manufacture website for any other devices you are unsure about to see if they have released vista compatible drivers yet. And I know that you (GeorgeS) probably know to do all these things as it is, I just thought this would be a good place to give a general overview for others while it was some what on topic. I hope this helps some and good luck with your upgrade.
