WinXP vs WinXP Media Center.
 

Anyone know the differences between the two?

never heard of it. microsoft says: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/m...n/hardware.asp

and it sounds like some marketing bs like its "optimized for media viewing". whatever. It sounds like they build a decent machine, throw a polished version of XP on there, give you some peripherals (remote, etc.) and call it a day.

go to this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/m...os/default.asp

and laugh.
