Thanks Gruv for the description. Yeah XPC is becomming the best kind of computer you can get. The system I'm buying holds the AMD Athlon XP CPU which can hit up to like 2.8gb or something like that. The memory can hit up to 1gb I belive. They have other models too, like 64 Bit systems or P4 systems. They are just barebone systems. Motherboard, Case and Power Supply. They also come with a SilentX Power Supply, the worlds best.

Unlikly youll find a PC with the same hardware specs as the xBox, so youll have to do so Kernel Level OS stuff before that'll work me thinks.

MCE 2004 wont remember a user id for a mapped drive.. which is a pain since It would have made sync'ing up my media folders a lot easier...

well I'm about to do the Review with tons of screen shots for Windows XP Media Center 2005. I'm making screen shots now.

BTW, I have my network hooked up to a domain. No Problems. They really made MCE2005 for gammers and people like us, who wanna use this in a car. you can go to newegg and buy a remote for it and everything, or just use touchscreen. I'm ordering the remote along with touch screen...for those nights I might find myself in the back seat of the honduh ;)

hey my first post awesome

anyway is Windows mce considered a program or a whole O.S, and what kind of hardware requeriments need to be met

i hopefully will get my grandfathers old laptop and run MCE if not i will build a 2ghz machine that i am not doing anything with

You need an emulator to have xbox work on pc and so far there haven't been any complete xbox emulators made yet. Even if there was an emulator, It would a lot of processor power to run because you would be both running windows, emulator, and xbox.
