When my laptop croaked I buzzed out and got a $400 computer. It has XP home on it. So far I seem to be able to do my stuff. What does XP pro have that XP home doesn't?

I got XP Pro the other day. I don't see much difference from W2K pro. I have seven items under administrative tools. How many do you have?
It does boot up faster than the old OS.

The main difference between XP Pro and XP Home is the fact that you can't place XP Home in a Domain. I think that's the biggy.
Here is a list of differences.
