Yes and no...

Windows XP came out with more then one version. The XP versions are Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home 64bit Windows XP Professional 64 bit, Windows XP Media Center. When they say SP1 that just mean that it has the Service Pack 1 updates installed. All three versions of XP can have SP1 but still are not the same operating system software.

XP Home is a basic OS for simple tasks most users need the operating system to perform.

XP Pro is a advanced OS that allows a used to configure the operating system to their requirements.

XP Pro and Home x64 is only for computers that have at least a dual core processor(64 bit systems.) This version is exactly the same, a little bit faster and more expensive. It is also better at multitasting
