Zitat

As a PVR, Media Center Edition functions just as well as any TiVo or ReplayTV box, and is already miles ahead of anything currently available for the PC. But if you're buying a Media Center PC to use as nothing more than a PVR, then you're unnecessarily making one very expensive investment. You can get PVR functionality and identical capabilities out of any set-top box, for a quarter of the price of a decent Media Center PC. In order for MCE to really be a competitor to the TiVo and ReplayTVs of the world, it will have to be made available in a much cheaper form - potentially as an Xbox2 add-on.

Ein typisches M$ Produktupgrade: Kein Mensch brauchts, aber wir machens trotzdem. Das Ganze ist wie der Sprung von Win98SE zu WinME: vollkommen sinnlos.
