There's not that much difference between the two. They are
both built on the same code base. In fact the stuff that
has been left out/disabled in the Home Edition is stuff you
would very rarely if ever use.

Anything you really need there is normally a way around it.

Windows is usually part of the package when you buy a new
computer.

i've never bought a pre-assembled pc.. in fact, the spirit
of my original 8088 (from 12+ years ago) still lives on in
this pc.. i've just upgraded one thing at a time until none
of the original parts remain.. eheh

and i've also never paid for an operating system.. although
i seem to have original windows 95 and 98se discs..

There's still Visual Studio .net 2003, that's pretty good.

.NET is quality (especially coding in C#)...I really enjoy
using it.

Visual Basic is devil spawn though :P
