Can anybody help me with this version

Soo many thankx

The only way to get MCE is to buy a PC that comes with it. Unless you
can find a black market OEM. Which is against policy.

This is no longer the case. Windows Media Center Edition can now be readily
purchased.

For instance http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16832102311

No one said it is not available, but as it said it is OEM for system
builders, not to put on a system that has been built. No body listens,
but that is the intent.

Is 99.9999999999999999% correct as Microsoft Partners received a copy a few
shipments ago.

That's odd, I coulda sworn someone said "The only way to get MCE is to buy a
PC that comes with it."
but as it said it is OEM for system builders, not to put on a system that
has been built.

That'll come as quite a shock to all the folks that have already bought and
installed the OEM version on existing PCs. (yes I know of a number of them)
As long as the hardware meets MCE requirements it can be installed.

People go on about things about which they are uninformed but hey that's the
Internet.
