Fw: Anyone know if you can get Windows XP Media Center Edition yet?

It's not the remote thats the problem,
it's the software.

All I want to see on my TV is a menu
with a list of videos, select them play them, navigate them - full
screen.

Nothing out there yet that can do that
as far as I can tell

   This has been do-able for some time on anything from Win98
upwards.  You don't need the XP hyperbloat to do it!  Just the right
remote controller, which is available from many shops.
