Windows XP Pro vs Windows Media Center Edition

[Guest]

I just wanted to make sure that Windows Media Edition has the same services
as Windows XP Pro - like terminal services ....

Hi

MCE 2005 is a Superset of XP Pro - so all Services will be included.

Although MCE 2005 is only available as an OEM version.

OK - so if I have two computer one with MCE and the other with XP pro, both
legit copies. I want MCE on both. Can I do a clean install of MCE on the
machine that has pro using the product key from XP Pro?

You have to use your MCE product key, sorry.

Plus you need an additional license to install it on the second machine.
