Just to add to the conversation, I have both a Media Center Edition 2005 machine and a TiVo... I still use the TiVo as my main machine as the remote and interface is just so easy. Even though MCE's interface is similar, it can get clumsy without a remote and without knowing all the short cut keys and installing the different hacks needed to get it to work properlly with guide data and something similar to TiVoWeb
