> Is it possible to upgrade an existing computer running XP
> Home to XP Pro without losing applications and data?
Yes, it's an easy upgrade. The WinXP Upgrade CD will do it. It's not
cheap, but it's the lowest price way to do this. (The full retail CD
will also work, but an OEM CD will not upgrade an existing
installation.)
It's always a good idea to back up anything you don't want to lose
before doing something like this.
You should be aware that there are very few things that Pro does that
Home doesn't also do. Pro can join a domain, in some environments that's
absolutely essential. Pro has some additional security features that
Home does not. Pro supports multiple CPU motherboards, but Home will
handle multi-core and hyperthreading CPUs.
