Another stupid anti-MS comment

Ok, tell my why the average person would be a portable entertaiment system what has not OS on it?

Have you ever tried for instance to put together a MythTV system? Look it up if you don't know.

Now, if I wanted a ready to go PC entertainment system, I'd probably get a Windows Media Center based system. For all of the people who bash Microsoft, they always seem to forget on thing. They actually HAVE systems that you can go buy and plug in. The only thing I do with my Media Center PC is run Windows Updates. I works very well.

The only problem that I've had with it is DVD buring, which has been a bit annoying. But that issue is trivial compared to getting a MythTV system running.

At any rate, I wouldn't mind trying on of these puppies out. I'm really starting to like Media Center. It just makes watching a recording TV very nice. Sure there are other PC solutions, but out of this box, this Media Center is very quick and painless.

There no doubt will be offerings of this form factor with Windows Media Center on it upon release.
