Windows XP Media Center 2005 - does it include IIS? Will it connect to SBS
2003?

Is it essentially XP Pro with Media extentions?

Many thanks,

Keith

Look in the Windows XP Media Center Newsgroup. This is Windows XP general.

Yes, it includes IIS. You need to elaborate more on your question about
will it connect to SBS 2003. Connect in what way?

It is basically XP Pro with Media extensions, but it cannot easily be made a
member of a domain. And if you do add it to a domain you can not connect an
extender device to it. This is because the extenders need the fast user
switching capability turned on, and that gets disabled when XP is a domain
member.
