February 3rd, 2007 09:09 PM #6That depends. How much of XP Pro's unique features do you actually use at home? I can't remember much of XP Pro's unique functions besides Backup and support for 2 cpus. Originally Posted by boybi

February 3rd, 2007 11:32 PM #7Yeah you lose business networking functions... For me having a Media Center OS is a downgrade on the point of price of OEM (8,000 for Pro, 7,000 for Media Center)...
