They are both the same core OS, therefore they will have the same performance, "restrictions", ability to run apps, etc.

Media Center is just an app that runs on a slightly modified version of XP Pro. The slight modifications are no ability to join a domain (except during the initial install) and no credman.
 
Aja! and the WMC is "heavier"?
Not sure what you're getting at here.

amd what do you men with credman and to join a domain?
If you have to ask, you probably don't need them. Credman allows you to map a drive to another computer using a different username and password and remember that user/pass combination through logouts and reboots. Joining a domain is for when you have a domain on the network (active directory).
