Should you build or buy a new Media Center PC? | |
|
||
| Time: 08:24 EST/13:24 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: John Quigley | ||

If you read the popular Media Center newsgroup, you know that many Microsoft customers would like to build their own Media Center computer to run Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. However, Microsoft does not currently offer the Media Center operating system software at retail. There is another alternative: Microsoft has made its Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 available to system builders as well as OEMs. System builders are small businesses who build and sell new PCs or servers. In some cases, system builders will license a copy of the Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 operating system software to their customers. This means that the software has become widely available to technical enthusiasts who want to build their own Media Center. | ||
