That is what M$ is trying to do. The home version is the "idiot" version of the professional. I bet for any development, you are going to have to use XP pro because the home version has been rigged so it will not work as well. Just another monopolistic move to make even more money!

IBM's CA site makes this clear in a lot of areas. We also are using XP on a fax server and Professional was much better than Home. -----Original Message----- From: Chuck Morehead [mailto:cbmorehead@nokuse.com] Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 7:57 AM To: midrange-l@midrange.com Subject: Re: Windows XP Karl, I have not run this myself. But from speaking with a tech friend that had to support a new XP laptop... if you have to get XP be sure to get XP Professional and not XP Home. He had a horrendous time trying to get XP Home to attach to their VPN. He did not have any problems with XP Professional.
