I haven't tried XP Pro yet.  I am avoiding it, because I dislike their 
"activation feature".  I have several legal copies of XP Pro, but I 
always have to call Microsoft for permission to install them - which I 
*hate* doing!  I'm trying to get Windows 2000 Pro running, if at all 
possible.  Win 2000 is also faster than XP under emulation (it's simpler 
I guess).

thx
