Huh? XP Pro will run just fine on notebooks. There is no special Windows XP for notebooks. Take a look at HP's site, for instance. XP Pro is a $49 upgrade on most of their notebooks.

Also, with Intel selling 64-bit desktop Celerons, one wonders if x64 Home will be there at launch, along with the Pro version.

In the event they do not, there is a lot more margin in notebooks than in low-end desktops, so having XP Pro ship on a notebook is more likely than finding it shipping on a Celeron desktop.
