Windows Media Center

[smurph]

IÂ’m interested in linking PC to TV to take advantage of Windows Media Center (WMC) functionality.
I have searched but havenÂ’t found the ultimate answer, DOES WMC have all the functionality of XP for wifi, downloading, dvd burning, home networking etc.
Can all software suitable for XP, be successfully installed and used on WMC?

Yes. It does have all the advatages of XP. MCE is only XP Pro with some extra thigns added to it to give it the MCE aspect. Just make sure your Tuner Card is compatable with MCE first before you make the leap.
