Default XP home and professional

Chris, if your hard drive is big enough, you can run a dual boot setup, to
have both versions on the same computer.
You choose which one to work in during boot up.

A 3rd party partition program such as Partition Magic is easier to work with
and you can create or delete partitions without losing any installed
programs.
Boot Magic, which is part of the Partition Magic program will give you a
menu during startup to select between 4 or more different programs, like
some who also keep Windows 98SE and WindowsME on the same machine for
playing games etc.

I have XPhome currently on my computer. This is the
easiest office product to navigate in and I really like
it. I want to use my computer for business purposes
because I cant afford to get another right now. But my
question is if I purchased XP Pro, can I run them
together on same computer? It is to my understanding that
XPpro has same as Home but more things geared for
business. Please help this is been on my mind for awhile
and need a computer for work ASAP.

Thanks Chris
