Mce 2005

[peekaboo]

Could someone please explain the whole MCE 2005 business to me?
If I wanna watch (and record) tv with my computer, what's the role of this OS as opposed to XP?
I still need a tv tuner card right?
Do I just no longer need the software that comes with the tv tuner card?
What about a remote?
If I buy a tv tuner card without a remote control will I be able to buy a remote control later? What about a universal remote?

too late to edit.

I think this might not be the right category for this question.
I will post it again somewhere else.
