    Hello everyone,

    I just got an E1705 with Windows Media Edition and will be installing a variety of softwares on it. My question is: I have never seen a software list compatibility with Media Edition before, just 98/2000/XP Pro. Since XP Pro and Media Edition are so similar, I am 99% sure that all softwares compatible with XP Pro would also work with Media Edition. But I just want to hear from the pros here and also see if there are any exceptions.

    Thanks guys,

    Yang

    If it says XP, it works on MCE.
