I am debating between Windows 7 Home and Professional. What are some examples of Windows XP Productivity Programs that require Windows 7 Professional?

Off the top of my head, virtualisation requires 7 Professional or Ultimate.

Thanks for replying swarfega, but my question is: "What are some examples of Windows XP Productivity Programs that require Windows 7 Professional?"

If you still need to use XP(as I do) I recommend dualboot XP and W7. Virtual XP Mode sucks.
That way you can have W7 home premium.
