File encryption is overkill even for most businesses, but if it is necessary it can be added by using a third-party software encryption solution. The 'security' aspects of a damain-based network are a complete irrelevence if you aren't connected to a domain-based network. Apart from those the only real 'security' benefit XP Pro gives is ease of configuring security-related settings. Pro includes Policy Editors which make the job easy. Home requires you to make the changes by altering Registry settings. But the same changes can still be made...although security features would be nice.
Ohh ok. I currently run Home XP, and in MSN Live, I can control my friends pc, and he can control mine. Both work the same. So, how is Remote Desktop different exactly? You always need someone else in the other end to accept requests, right?
Remote Desktop and IIS are biggies for me, and they're only in Pro.
It's not strange at all. Any recent version of Windows has the client part of RDP...or it can be installed for free. It's the inbound "server" part that isn't present in XP Home.That's strange, because my XP home has remote desktop. I use it to run my test machine since it doesn't have a monitor, mouse or keyboard hooked to it.

I love running virtual pc 2007 on pro. Its saved me so much hassle when testing things.
