Not with the new one:
While you can access network resources on a work network or a domain, you cannot join a Windows XP
Media Center 2005 PC to the domain. PCs running Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 are designed
specifically for home use. Professional features, specifically Domain Join and Cached Credentials
(Credentials Manager for logins) are not included. As a result, you will be prompted for your login
username/password to access network resources after a reboot or logging back into the PC. In
addition, file shares or network resources set to require a domain-joined PC for access will not be
available. Remote Desktop and Encrypting File System support are still included.
