Re: XP Question A slightly OT question for you since I haven't seen this discussed in the MSFT literature yet. MSFT kindly provides comparison tables between XP Home Edition and Windows 98 and between XP Professional and Win2K Pro but nowhere have I yet seen a comparison between XP Home and XP Pro. Is XP Pro a proper superset of XP Home functionality or are there features in Home which don't exist in Pro? The reason I ask is that for years MSFT has suggested that "power users" run the latest NT (Pro) code base at home and yet the "home" versions of Windows always seemed to have certain functionality which could not be duplicated in the "Pro" version. I'm hoping XP ends this frustration but I've not yet seen confirmation that it does. Thanks.
