thats proberly because of the large % of people who have XPhome compared to XPpro and the people useing XPpro tend to be pro's.

both os are basicly the same. home just as a few bits missing.

...like the toolkit, the remote control, hole for the second turbo, jack, spare tyre, adjustable suspension, steering wheel, and the rear vision mirror.

60757 2002-07-08 13:58:00 When I meant problem I meant configurating problem related not incompatibility problem. xp pro and xp home have the same kernel and codes. I was meant to say that xp home doesn't have the features that xp pro does, and those features are very useful. boom23 (176)

60759 2002-07-09 00:18:00 I would go for win98SE...but that's personal choice. If you do go for it, make sure that you use windows update. In particular the update that slows down your shutdown by 2 seconds so that the HDD has time to write data in it's cache to the actual disk, so you dont lose data. This is an issue cause of the speed of which your computer would shut down. Even a duron 800 can have this issue, let alone an XP athlon!
