For the A/V/ Guys, a question

[Juice Box]

Besides one being retail and more expensive, what exactly is the difference between these two, and which would be better overall?

Well, this has been answered a few dozen times in General Hardware over the last couple of months, but I'll help the search-impaired n00b:

mce = Media Center Edition = no remote or software package. Not the card to buy unless you have the Media Center 2005 version of XP and you have a MCE remote.

PVR-150 is this year's replacement for the -250. It's just as good but cheaper to manufacture. Buy a PVR-150 (not -150mce) and be a happy n00b!



(that was unkind, perhaps I should switch to decaf 🙂 )

so, say I have Windows MCE 2005, but no remote... will the remote for the PVR 150 work with MCE?
