More differences between WinXP Pro and corporate

I know that Corporate doesn't require you to do that activating thing. Are there any other differences between pro and pro corporate other than that?

Not that I'm aware of.

There is the Java issue with build 2600 and the *normal* corporate version...

Java issue? Is that with Microsoft's watered down version of the Sun version?

The one that Sun got really pissed off about, I think.

Can't say I give a shit about Java, it's only trouble I think.

As for MS' version, I heard it was actually better performance wise, still bad though.

They got pissed off about it because MS slapped in proprietary code into it and encouraged people to only use it instead of the universal code, so Sun sued Microsoft. Microsoft decided to act like a baby about it and yanked it off Windows Update. What they didn't know is that they only pissed off the customers that didn't have Java or know that they could goto Sun's website to get it. All they saw was the little popup saying they didn't have Java and to click OK to get it...and get a 404 when they do.
