Hi
Im just about to take the plunge & purchase AF Pro Deluxe. I would like clarification on one thing though. I run Windows XP Professional (as opposed to XP Home). Is there anything I should be aware of in terms of installation or running in that regard? The AFP specs I read refer to "XP" without any other distinction. Thanks in advance.

AFP works just fine in Pro and Home versions.
I've heard mixed reports of better performance in both. Either way it will be just fine.

Great to hear, thanks. Is there any XP specific setup required on installation, or is it the same basic procedure as any other OS? I thought I read somewhere a different or unique download was required specifically for XP, but that was going back a bit or maybe I misunderstood.
When you say better performance, what sort of benchmark? Like screen refresh rate that makes it feel smoother or something? I have a P4 3.0 cpu, twinx 1024 3200 ram, nvidea 5700 LE? FX? graphix card. Sound ok so far?
