I'm planning on purchasing a PC with Windows Media Center 2005. I always used (and use) XP Pro SP2. I"m concerned about the following:
- Is WinMCE as secure as XP Pro?
- Is the SP2 patch applicable only to XP or also to MCE?
- Are aplications compatible with XP also compatible with MCE?
- Is MCE as stable as XP?
- What features does MCE lack compared to XP?
Thanks.
