    I am looking at two computers configured with the exact same specs (Dell 9400 and e1705) and have discovered something very interesting. The e1705 has MCE but is over $200 more than the 9400 which has the Home edition, which seems like those who select the e1705 are getting ripped off. Is the Media Center Edition really worth the extra cash and can't I get a program that will allow me to record tv on my computer if I wanted to after I purchased the computer?
