>The big bullet features that Windows XP Pro
>includes that Home does not are... System
>Restore & Device Driver Roll-Back


XP home *does* include system restore and device driver rollback, as you can see in http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/evaluation/features.asp . The article you linked to was referring to XP Pro's inclusion of a backup program, thereby providing the "more robust options for backing up and restoring data" the article referres to (sytem restore does not backup your data, only system files).

Thanks for the clarification, Simon!
(I'll be editing my original entry to reflect your clarification.)

Right click on the desktop, select properties, click on the settings tab. You should be able to change your screen resolution there.

I read that XP Pro does not require registering with a key number when installing whereas XP Home does. Is this correct?

Nope. XP Pro needs a CD Key just as Home does.

I have windows xp and want to change my true colour from true 16-bit to 32-bit but cant because i only have 16 and 24.What do i need to do to change this

If I understand your question correctly: that's a function of your graphics card. You'll need a graphics card / video adapter that supports 32bit.
