Folks:

I seem to recall something about XP home not being able to connect to
Network domains and/or only being able to connect to one default
domain? ie, a user with an XP home Notebook can connect to the
Internet via DSL through their ISP, but they cannot then take their
Notebook to work and connect to their work Network and/or go to a
friends house and connect to the Internet via a different ISP ???

Not sure if I have the facts right or not but I recall someone telling
me to be sure to get XP Pro to avoid these problems ??

What is the actual scenario or difference between these systems?

Thanx muchly for any info...
