Windows XP comes in two versions- Home and Professional. Both are built on the NT kernel. XP Home is the replacement for home Windows operating systems such as Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows ME (all of which were built on DOS). XP Home is significantly limited in its capabilities with relation to participation in NT/2000/.Net domains as it is not intended to be a corporate desktop. XP Professional is the next version of NT Workstation/Windows 2000 Professional, has full functionality with relation to NT/2000/.Net domains, and is intended to be a corporate desktop OS.
.Net servers are the next versions of Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 2000 Datacenter server. While the .Net name is assigned to them, it is not to be confused with the .Net programming platforms. Whistler was the code name for both XP and .Net servers for a time. Briefly, MS was reported to be planning to call the servers "Windows 2002 <server OS>". Both are defunct. To summarize: XP = client .Net Server, .Net Advanced Server and .Net Datacenter Server = next server versions.
