as above have got a laptop with xp media on it and a pc with xp pro thats going to be used as a media player in my bedroom. and am debating updating them to vista.

is it worth it?
 
now your asking.

its an

abit ic7 max3 board
intel 2.6 ghz chip i think
1gig kingston memory
radeon 9800
creative live 2 card
160 gig hard drive
lite on cd writer dvd rom

think thats it
 
cheers marc home pro is the choice then if i decided to go for it.

can you get a media remote to work with vista home does anyone know?

also can i sell my copy of xp pro that ive got now.
 
punk - vista would run on that as a media pc wouldnt it? only going to be used as a music player and a dvd player , and some web browsing for my bedroom. not going to be used for games as i use my xbox 360 for that
 
ok thanks guys appreciate the input. just two more questions

can you get a media remote to work with vista home does anyone know?

also can i sell my copy of xp pro that ive got now? what are the legalities
 
cheers

its an oem version

so my media remote ive already got with my laptop that i dont use can be utilised for my media pc, thats good news. i take it all just plug the infra red adapter that came with the laptop into my desktop and i should be away.
 
thanks very much

so if i cant sell my xp pro can i use it on another pc as i may put together a small pc for the office with all the spare bits ive got.
