Whats the difference between Windows XP Pro and Windows XP Home?
Windows XP Professional offers a number of features unavailable in the Home Edition, including: * The ability to become part of a Windows Server domain, a group of computers that are remotely managed by one or more central servers. * A sophisticated access control scheme that allows specific permissions on files to be granted to specific users under normal circumstances. However, users can use tools other than Windows Explorer (like cacls or File Manager), or restart to Safe Mode to modify access control lists. * Remote Desktop server, which allows a PC to be operated by another Windows XP user over a local area network or the Internet. * Offline Files and Folders, which allow the PC to automatically store a copy of files from another networked computer and work with them while disconnected from the network. * Encrypting File System, which encrypts files stored on the computer’s hard drive so they cannot be read by another user, even with physical access to the storage medium. * Centra
