that all of the computers at the soup kitchen should have XP

Directory thingies and don't even use file- or print-sharing!
And she decided that being able to changes the reserved
bandwidth is a compelling reason for XP Pro.
None of the above have anything to do (directly) with QoS. QoS
has to do with QoS-aware apps/protocols and QoS-aware hardware
working together in QoS-type situations. [Good luck getting
that clarified. :) ]
Besides QoS is generally considered to be a *good* thing !
