This means that Microsoft will have tons of different version of Windows floating around. I just want my tablet PC.

Originally code-named Freestyle, this entertainment version of Windows--which will go by the name Windows XP Media Center Edition--will appear on new PCs and PC hybrids in time for the holidays, the company revealed on Tuesday. With Windows Media Center, consumers will be able to use a TV remote control to catalogue songs, videos and pictures, as well as check TV listings.

Windows Media Center brings the number of XP versions to five. The others are: Windows XP Home for standard consumer PCs, Windows XP Professional for business, Windows XP Tablet PC for tablets and notebooks and the embedded version for devices. Earlier this year, Chairman Bill Gates said that selling customized versions of Windows, as requested by nine states pursuing the antitrust case against Microsoft, would confuse customers.
