I stay right away form XP Home ( and XXP-PRo where I can), but I seem to 
recall a couple of gotchas with XP Home (and maybe Pro as well?)

There was something about it always connected to shares by default as user 
Guest, regardless of what you are logged in as.

There was also something about not being able to use blank passwords on 
remote logons.

I'd suggest a google on the above.
