Upgrading from XP Media Center to XP Pro

Is there an upgrade from XP Media Center to XP Pro or do I
have to reimage my PC?

Windows Media Center is a "superset" of Windows XP Professional,
meaning it has all the features of XP Pro plus additional Media Center
features. It would not make any sense to alter Media Center.

Transitioning from WinXP MCE to WinXP Pro is a _downgrade_.

WinXP Media Center Edition is a _superset_ (iow, it does
_everything_ WinXP Pro can do, plus contains additional multi-media
features) of WinXP Pro.
