Do you think a TR3A would benefit from the upgrade to Win XP Media Center Ediditon 2005? What would the benefits be?

I am sure Groovy knows the answer… :D :D

Considering that the TR3A does not have TV hardware and doesn’t have the capacity to record a lot of video, it doesn’t make sense for it to have MCE.

I doubt the TR was designed to be a home theatre PC.

i installed this FREE update a few weeks ago: Windows Media Player 10 Series and it broke all DVD/CD recording abilitites in nero, so i uninstalled it and i am back on version 9.  I was not impressed at all with v10, which apparently handles all the recording functions.  I think nero still reigns in this regard, from expert to beginner, you can do it.
