What, exactly, is the difference between the two? I need to buy one or the other and plan to buy oem whichever I decide on, but I'd like to know if pro offers any additionial incentive for someone who wants to use it for primarily gaming.

danke
 
Here's some info that may help answer that: http://www.winsupersite.com/sh...windowsxp_home_pro.asp

(thanks, Google 😀)

Something I don't see them mentioning there: XP Pro being the business-market version, it has longer security-update support, out to Dec 31 2008 IIRC, versus June 30 2007 for XP Home (at Windows Update, I mean). If you think you might keep it in service that long, that could be a little perk to Pro.
