Why would you make that statement? XP Home may not have all the security features of Pro built in, but unless you plan on networking in an office environment, you don't need those Pro features. Plus, SP2 adds so much security to either I doubt if there's even much of a difference any more. I use both and Home is just fine. By the way, it's Home edition not addition. Addition is what you learned in math class.
