Microsoft equate processors with sockets. Eldorian is quite correct. Everything outside of a Mac Pro does not need XP Pro if you don't need remote admin and domain access.
I've talked with a few Mac Pro users that are using XP Home on their machines.

No word on if the operating system allows access to the second socket. At least in my memory. *shrug*
