XP home or pro?

TheIcyKissOfDeath

Which is better? I don't know what the difference between the two is.

Are you on a corporate domain setup? Do you use Active Directory?

its my home computer

then you want XP home. there is nothing that pro will give you over home, except for enterprise support stuff

Here's a list of differences:

unless you need active directory support, RIS, 4 or more CPU support, EFS, or Group policy, save money and use Home.

If you don't know what those things are, then you really don't need pro
