  2. If you don't want it please GOD give it to me !!!!

    WinXP has some problems with drivers, though these are being updated daily (they have to be, win98 is dead as far as microsoft are concerned). Also if you use a capture card things can be a little trickier to get going. Home version has no support for dual processors.

    All in all Xp is far superior to 95/98/Me, though if you already have win2k installed there's not too much advantage to upgrading.

    Get it and do the upgrade and have it save your existing operating system so if you dont like it you go back to normal. I have never used homeedition but i have used the pro and have found win2k to be more efficent and over all better.
