Windows XP Professional has many great features and the views in this article are not necessarily the best features or those which you might feel are more useful. The following reason to choose XP Professional is just the tip of the iceberg but is certainly a great starting point.

• Access Control – allows you to restrict access to selected applications, files, and other various resources
• Centralized Administration – make Windows XP Professional part of a Windows server domain and take advantage of the fantastic array of powerful security and management tools
• Dramatically reduced reboot scenarios – Eliminates the majority of circumstances that force end users to reboot in all other versions of Windows. Also, many software installations will not require reboots.
• Enhanced File System – feature protects sensitive data which is stored on the NTFS (New Technology File System) file systems.
• Group Policy – feature simplified the administrative functions of groups or computers and users
• Multilingual User Interface (MUI) - The local user can then select the user interface language, or the administrator can set it through a Group Policy.
• Offline Files and Folders – allows access to folders and files on a network when disconnected from the server
• Remote Desktop – remotely access your Windows XP Professional computer from another Windows PC which will allow you to work with all your files and data when you are away from your office
• Remote Installation Service (RIS) – supports remote installation of operating systems where personal computers can be installed across the network
• Software Installation and Maintenance – automatically install, repair, maintain, remove, and otherwise control software applications
• Windows File Protection – Protects core files from being overwritten by application installations. By preserving system files, Windows XP Professional alleviates many of the most common system failures encountered in earlier versions of Windows.
• Windows Firewall and Exception List –Built-in Windows Firewall helps increase computer security from startup to shutdown. Helps administrators better manage applications and static port exceptions by allowing only ports needed by an application to be open.

This is only a small amount of features that I feel are important to the end-user when making a decision to purchase Windows XP Professional over XP Home. For more benefits and features, go to the Microsoft Windows XP Professional Features site at Microsoft’s website.
