So I would use those... however.....
there is also a hack that supposedly is able to make HOME to use its
terminal services as pro does.
I have not tried it, and it must be against MS EULA, but here is the info:
German computer magazine C'T claims that by changing only 2 bytes from the
file setupreg.hiv in Windows's XP Home kit, users can get access to certain
functions only avalaible in Windows XP Professional, such as Remote Desktop,
User management and enhanced security features.
C'T writes in its latest print issue (in German only) that you need to copy
the root directory and the i386 directory of the WindowsXP CD to your
harddisk, extract the Bootsector of your WindowsXP CD and change only 2
bytes in i386Setupreg.hiv by using Regedit. In fact all you have to do is
edit the binary key "default" and change "01" to "00" and "02" to "00" in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEHomekeyControlSet001Servicessetupdd, C'T claims.
There is one big drawback, though. Users won't be able to install Service
Pack 2, unless they integrate SP2 in the installation CD. And that's
probably too much trouble for most users, who of course are better off
buying a legal version anyway. It is expected that Microsoft will change the
setup files soon to prevent this hack. "

The truth is one, you must accept it. Reality is not a point of view, since
if everything was a point a view, then the theory that everything is a point
of view, is just a point a view and not something real.
