This is a maddening problem that people have been fighting for years. If you have a windows machine that is always on, and which wins browser elections (like a domain controller or some server machine) its not so bad, but for me, where windows machines only occasionally connect (and are usually in VMs) its a never ending pain in the neck.
Yiks.
It gets worse. Some versions of Windows BY DESIGN cannot see other versions of Windows. It depends both on the OS (my father-in-law has a Win7 laptop and had an XP desktop) and connecting between those two machines was one-way only - can't remember which. And I believe home versions of Windows can no longer join/connect to a domain, so if your Pro version is configured to use a domain not a workgroup, it is likely to be invisible to a home machine (and/or vice versa).
