Windows XP Home

Mar 17, 2004 7:12AM PST

I have a new laptop with WinXP Home. I'd like to save the upgrade cost to Pro.

I have a peer to peer network at home - workgroup="Home." I'd like to login to my office workgroup="Workgroup."

I can't seem to find a way to create two users/profiles like in XP Pro. Multipe users set up on my laptop all have the same workgroup name.

Would it work to rename my home workgroup to "Workgroup?"

Thanks,
Craig.
