Re: e1705 and Media Center and XP Pro
Basically, XP Pro and MCE are the exact same core system with a few different features. I'm not exactly sure what reviews you have been talking about, but you install which system fits you. Yes, your media keys will work with any XP system, and so will Media Direct.
If you are in to entertainment more, then get MCE. If you aren't or have to log in to a domain network , then get XP Pro.
