Thanks ams! It's a thought, but I am facing a delicate situation. In this instance, change is not good :S
Not to worry at all my friend. Using Pro 8.1 would not be a change. The owner is already happy with 8.1 in his home pc. And he has somehow gotten the Pro version in his work pc. It's not like he has to buy it now or anything. Let him use it. You wouldn't have to work much. Bitlocker, HomeGroup and some other features are disabled in the Pro version by default. You would just need to make sure that the rest of the features in the Pro version is disabled. That's all. The owner wouldn't notice what version he is using unless he opens the System Information window.
And an added advantage would be you can teach him the extra features in Pro version in the future. And when he would understand the better security and networking capabilities of the Pro versioni, he would be very happy.:)

In addtion, since the administrative assistant is on Windows 7, it makes things difficult when she tries to help the owner.
Make sense?
Just install Classic Shell in the 8.1 Pro Office pc. The assistant should have no problem using 8.1 then. It would be just like Win 7.:)
Or does it work another way. I'm not familiar with administrative office pc environment. But if that causes a problem then you have to get Win 7 on the owner's office pc which would cost him extra money.
