Pro or Home. It's for a network
I'll be mounting a cibercafe within a month. The web access will be DSL, shared between the PCs.
What version of XP should I buy? Home or Pro? I had thought of Home for the PCs for rent, and Pro for the main PC. Is my reasoning right? The PCs will be Celys @ 1.2 GHz with 256 MB in RAM and 40 gig HDs. Intel MB-BX D815 EGEWU mobos. The main PC will be an Athlon 1700+, MSI K7T266A Pro-2 mobo, 256 MB in RAM, 60 GB HD. TIA for your input.

From what I know about the 2, the biggest difference as far as networking is that Home version can not join a domain, and IPSEC works on the pro version. I believe there are some enhancements for the users too on XP pro. You can get a bit more advanced with user groups and rights&priveliges. I remember seeing a post with a link to a site with all the differences betwen the 2 versions!
