[apu95]

im gonna get myself a new dell pc for xmas and its gonna come with xp home. since i already have xp pro (full), can i use that cd to upgrade the home version?

PS: anyone that has a dell, do you get all the cds that come with it (ie. mobo cd, drivers, xp home cd, etc etc)?

1). yes you can use that to upgrade it

2) yes they have a browser based cd with all drivers for all the dell pc's, or at least the 50 that i just made a ghost image for at work did.

Now i have 50 boxes full of cd's that i have to store somewhere.

yes, to the first question

have no idea on the second cause I wouldn't own a dell
