Difference between Windows XP Pro and Home Edition?

[Ender]

The price difference is a lot, so I was wondering why pro costs so much more then Home edition?

Do a search on that. There will be huge threads on that subject, which should explain it.

You might get more details in the Operating System Forum which is where this thread belongs.

Differences are things like dual proc. support, files-system encryption (I think), etc.

Well, to make it simple, Home is a crippled piece of crap, while Pro isn't.
