I plan to pre-order Windows 7 before the 11th, and I can't for the life of me decide which version to get.  Home goes for $49 and Pro for $99 with the current deal they have running (as I'm sure most of you know).

As best I can tell, the differences between the two versions aren't all that great.  The only major difference is XP Virtualization, a feature I'm not even sure I'll use.

Do you guys think XP mode is worth the extra $50?  I'm not exactly rolling in money at the moment, or else I'd just say, "It's only $50, who cares."

Which version do you think I should go with?  Which version are you going with?
