Windows XP Media Center 2005

Lately, I've noticed some of the office supply companies advertising their new computers NOT equipped with XP Home or Pro, but "Windows XP Media Center 2005".

My question is, what is "Windows XP Media Center 2005"?

Thanks in advance

Media Center Edition is a version of Windows XP--a superset of XP
Professional (but miising the ability to join a domain). It has extra
media-related features. See

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