Not sure what planet you guys are on, but MCE was hardly a "short lived" or unpopular idea. The XP version of Media Center has been sold since 2002. MS has sold millions of copies (and continues to be sell this version) . The Media Center features are now a part of Vista Home Premium and Ultimate. There really isn't a way to "de-media center" it, you can't just uninstall the Media Center bits. You can purposely mess up the install to end up with just the XP Pro part, but I'm not sure if other apps might still see it at Media Center anyway. -- James Orlando (Goofy says "Hey"), Florida "Mike Rivers" <mrivers@d-and-d.com> wrote in message news:bb3fcbdf-0147-48d7-b552-e487db554af4@q3g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... > On Dec 10, 7:40 am, Doc <docsavag...@yahoo.com> wrote: > >> Interesting.
