Is this another dumbing down of a product? Cool idea...but something that can already be accomplished with a regular XP Pro 'puter?

...the marketing dept has spoken?

| 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.
