Does anyone else find their computer runs spot on under the Home Edition and a bit of a chimp under the Professional version?

My laptop is weird!

Home is good for its purpose, Pro is too bloated for standard hone users who dont need remote desktop etc etc

having said that Pro works fine for me

Surely if people solely use their machines for the net, msn, playin tunes and watchin the odd movie then home is more than sufficient.

Pro is for people who want to look like they know what their talking about.

Tbh speed wise XP Homo and Pro run at the same speed from my expirience as does Mce (Only installed for my 360, waste of time!). If you want speed go for XPCorp runs the bare minimum. But Vista Ultimate is where its at now Runs as fast as XP Mce but has alot more to offer, seems more stable too (Bet that wont last, Windows after all).
