	Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004 Review
		Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004 is one of the stealthiest major software releases Microsoft has ever released.
		In any event, XP MCE 2004 is a good upgrade from the previous version, with performance enhancements, UI fixes, and a somewhat dramatic extension of the basic functionality that was available in the original Media Center release.
		XP MCE 2004 even handles line-up and channel changes, and if you decide to record a new show during a time in which another show was set to record, it will attempt to find the cancelled show at another time and quietly record it for you automatically.

	Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004 review by PC Magazine
		A current case in point is Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004, announced September 30 and scheduled to begin shipping this fall on a growing roster of multimedia PCs.
		Nor can you upgrade a standard PC to the Media Center Edition interface, although that's something Microsoft may reconsider given that vendors such as Dell are creating their own looks-like-MCE software for systems that are media centers minus the TV tuners and PVRs.
		Media Center Edition 2004 is a worthy upgrade for current users and a very compelling product for anyone in the market for a multimedia PC.
