Vista Business Edition - Can you still stream media?

[Guest]

Hello I'm trying to decide on which Vista edition is most appropriate for my
needs.

I want the Remote Desktop capability. This implies Vista Business or Vista
Ultimate.

I also want to be able to stream media (music, videos, JPEG slide shows)
over my network to a D-Link DSM-320 Media Center (hardware device) attached
to my television. I do NOT want/need to put together a Media Center PC.

Can I get away with Vista Business (using Windows Media Player 11 to stream
the media, like I can do now in Windows XP)? Or, do I need Vista Ultimate
(which includes the Media Center features of Vista Home Premium)?

I would appreciate a response only if you have the answer.

Thx.

If you have a working copy of XP that does what you want it to do why would
you even consider spending your money to get Vista?

I would stick with what you have unless you have a real good reason to move
to Vista right now. Maybe after service pack 1 but not now.
