From what I've read, XP 64-bit is not as good as home/professional, as the driver support for 64-bit is not as much as H/Pro. You may have to do some detective work, see if the drivers you'll need exist for 64-bit.

I agree.

You can find 64-bit drivers for major companies, like ATI, nVidia, ect. However alot of hardware doesnt yet have 64-bit drivers, so there may be a few pieces of hardware that arent compatible with it.

And theres also some software that isnt compatible.

Hmm, XP Pro then? I was wondering about that, better just to be safe and less hassle.
