Xp Pro Vs. Xp Home

What's the difference? I got the Pro for cheaper, but I was just wondering if you guys knew what's so special about the Pro...

one thing people don't notice that is very important for offices is XP Home doesn't have domain support and XP Pro does.

Home = For home and basic needs
Pro = For businesses and use with advanced networking.

I got a package deal off of Ebay:
Intel Pentium D 820
Intel D945PSN
Windows Xp Pro
Adobe Photoshop Elements
Adobe Premier Elements

It was 330 after s/h. I could have gotten it slightly cheaper if I had waited around longer, but I just spent the extra $10 or so and got it sooner. (there are more for any interested)

Hi
I use Windows XP Pro, the big difference I see is the number of fonts in Pro, in Home you cant see all foreign websites.
