Media Center -vs- XP Pro

Comment:

I want to buy a new Dell with a dual core Intel 2.8Ghz processor, but it seems that all the systems I want have Media Center for an operating system. I'm used to XP Pro. I was wondering if XP Media Center has the same capabilities as Pro does, like "system recovery" and ability to make home networks. Anybody have any info?

In short, the Media Center is actually XP Pro bundled with multimedia features. i_XpUser
