XP Home or Proffesional?

[Prometheus]

I currently have XP Home installed on my laptop, but I have Proffesional on disc(complimants of Devry). Is proffessional better or should I just leave it with home?

Unless you're going to be networking a very large number of PCs together, or you are going to run a PC with two CPUs in it, XP Home will serve you fine.

both xp-home and pro will run two cpu's

pro does have some features that make networking life easer.

No both will support Hyperthreading, only Pro support 2 cpu's

A decision best made by each persons own needs.
