You must be pretty wealthy if you own the licenses for all 4 of those.

To give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe his place of employment or college offered availability to the different versions?
I say go with Pro. Why? *shrug*. I have MCE on my laptop but don't use the multimedia features much. But unless you need it Pro's features, just go with Home.

lol glc 2 of them are from my emachines computers. the home and the mce. i bought the x64, and my friends computer got smashed so he gave me the pro. lol and in the licence agreement it says that you can legally transfer the full program to another computer as long as it doesnt remain on the previous one. or somethin like that Ill have to re read it.

The two from the eMachines cannot be used on a different computer. The Pro is only legal if it's retail or unrestricted OEM, if it shipped with a name brand computer it's not unrestricted.
