Wich XP?
Hi,
I can't really tell the difference between XP Pro and XP home edition. I need to buy a copy for another computer should I go Home or Pro? Could someone tell me the differences, main benefits of the pro version? What would be a good partition size on the HD to install XP? I use it mainly to play poker with usual poker software (PT, PAHUD)on a core 2 duo, 2GB of RAM. thanks to anyone who could give some input about that. |

Re: Wich XP?
From a poker player's view point you want Pro so that you can use user authentication to physically access the OS. You dont want the old "click on a username, and maybe have to enter a password"...

Re: Wich XP?
thanks for the answers, it looks like the home edition will do the job.
Let me know if I overlooked something in terms of security. From the security post in the FAQ it looks more worthwhile to get a router. Is still the Linksys WRT54G the way to go? |
