Hello All:

I'm taking an Advanced Internet Applications class at DePaul University
in Chicago.  One requirement for the class, if I want to do programming
assignments on my home computer is that I upgrade my computer to Windows
XP Professional so I can use SQL Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2005.

I can get XP Pro free from DePaul.  I'm a Window-Eyes user and I will be
contacting GW Micro to make sure I have a version of WE which can run on
XP Pro.  What I'd like to know is can I set up an unattended
installation or in some other way, independently upgrade my XP home
machine to XP Pro?  If so, does anyone have advice on how to do it?

Many thanks,
