I just got my 600m in today and I am going to do a fresh install of XP. It came with XP Home and I also have a copy of XP Pro. What really are the advantages of using pro?

Which XP?

With XP pro I can VPN into another companies network (logon to an authenticated domain). You can't do this with XP home. For scripting with ASP I need the IIS services, which you also can't use with XP home.

Here's a comparision guide from Microsoft:
