We are a voluntary group that has a network of PCs (currently on XP) that are
used solely for accessing the Internet, not file sharing. We are about to buy
4 new PCs all with Vista - can someone advise me what version would be best
for us?
Thanks

So your network isn't a domain? Then Vista Basic* or Home Premium is
what you want. Here are some links with comparisons of the versions:

*Basic is *very* basic and I normally wouldn't recommend it for a
regular home user but you will know best what you want for your group.
