I don't understand why everyone's so scathing of XP Home. We use Home and it's fine. What's so bad about it? [img]graemlins/confused2.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]I agree.
We have 2 computers, one running Home one running Pro; and the only difference I can see is the loggin "loading" bar is blue in home, and green in Pro.

well from a technical stand point, when xp was released and my company started selling it, I read the breakdown in the differences between home and professional. There really isnt much of a difference. The key difference is that only Prof. supports networks that operate on a domain. of course nobody exept large companies are going to be using domains. the other small differences were features so obscure i cant even remember what they were let alone ever using them.

hey lennon, read your statement about not being able to play the sims. so i dug out my copy and installed it. what kind of problem are you having with it? it plays fine on mine.
