Windows 7 64-bit should work fine.

Mac OSX isn't exactly what I would call optimal for gaming, I'm not too familiar with gaming on Ubuntu, and Google Chrome OS shouldn't even be suggested. :p

Don't worry about Professional or anything, Home Premium should be the most you'll need.

Yes, I've never had a single issue with it, especially when it comes to gaming. Smile
