What's the real difference between XP Home and Pro?

I'm about to purchase an OS and was wondering what advantages XP Pro has over XP Home?

Also, if I buy and OEM version, what don't I get?

Thanks,

Rob

OEM gets you the XP disk, product key, and a little installation brochure, which is all you need. Here's link to MS's explanation of Pro vs Home.
