Bill, XP Bites:
There is a limit on RAM of 4 GB with either dual or single processors! The primary difference between home and Pro is that home can workgroup with no domain access. Pro has domain access on a network! Other than that they are the same! File Size Limits Win 95 FAT = 2GB file size limit Win 98\ME FAT 32 = 4GB file size limit Win 2000 NTFS = 2TB (Terabytes) file size limit Boot Drive Size Limits http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/tech/storage/ntfs-preinstall.asp Win 95 Fat16 = 2GB Win 98 Fat32 = 32GB XP NTFS = Theoretical: 2^64 clusters Actual: 2^32 clusters (1MB= 1 cluster) you can use the hold drive no matter the size of the drive or the IDE limits of 120GB! FYI I'm going to play golf because I'm driving up this year if I'm not in jail!

Home is the one I have heard nothing but complaints about. Pro is actually the first MS operating system I have liked. Except for that fact that a 2 Gig boot drive is not big enough.
