upgrading XP home to XP Pro

Here's the short question to my issue, what is the most affordable way to upgrade XP home to XP Pro, i need to upgrade at least two machines, maybe as many as 11 depending on the price. If it is too expensive, then i will post the full issue for some advice, but it think that the upgrade is the best way to go.

thanks for the help

You'll need a "Licensed" cd & key for each machine. Might contact MS for a multi user license. Apparently, an XP upgrade cd will do the trick.
