Off the top of my head, Pro has:
Multiprocessor support
Remote Desktop (think VNC)
Dynamic drive support
Roaming profile support
Active Directory support

EDIT: Curse you, metsallica, for being helpful AND quick

All I've used is XP Home, but I can tell you that if you're planning on doing any networking, get Pro. Accessing shared files through Home is a royal pain in the ass because for some reason, Microsoft decided that it wasn't necessary to have a "remember user name and password" option for network drives in Home.
