It's not mainly about Windows XP Home Edition: it's about both Professional and Home. We wrote it about Windows XP Pro, and then noted where Windows XP works differently. Someone else claimed that the book omits getting a Windows XP computer networked with a Windows 98 computer. Chapter 28 is about setting up LANs, and it describes the whole process. There's a Network Setup Wizard you can run on both the Windows XP and Windows 98 system to get them both configured. The key point is that older Windows versions use the NetBEUI networking protocol, and Windows XP doesn't, unless you do some extra steps. The best solution is to switch your older machines over to TCP/IP, the networking protocol that both Windows XP and the Internet use. Anyway, I hope that this extra information is helpful!...
