Home to Pro

[Colin]

Hello, could somebody tell me if there is a way to download the upgrade from
XP Home to XP Pro? Stuck in deepest darkest middle of India there is a
distinct lack of Microsoft distribution places around. Quite nice actually.
Any help appreciated, cheers, Colin

One cannot "download" an upgrade to Windows XP Pro.
You'll need to purchase a "Retail Upgrade Version" of
Windows XP Pro on CD.

Actually, you can get a "Universal MSDN" subscription and have access to all
the MS software you want - but it'll cost the big bucks.

No there isn't (apart maybe from pirate sites that I would not trust
anyway)
