RE: XP Home or Pro?

["albartell" <albartell@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wow, a lot won't even touch XP Home.  I have XP Home on one of my machines
(that I was using for the majority of my Java/RPG development until a month
ago).  It worked great and I was able to get at it from all other machines
on the network.  It didn't hiccup on WDSC or MyEclipseIDE or any other
software I use.

What is it exactly that makes XP Home a bad OS for a developer to use? (or
for IT staff to maintain)

Thanks,
Aaron Bartell

XP Pro. I would not use the Home edition
