Microsoft Xp Media Center Edition Hp Computer

I bought this because I get all my tv over the air. Recording a show necessitates using the dvd recorder, and it's getting old, and is not truly reliable. This tv tuner worked as soon as I plugged it into the usb port on my computer. I hooked up to the coaxial cable from my attic antenna, and I get a better picture than I do on my regular tv. It picked up all the channels and using it with Microsoft Media Center is easy as pie. I like Microsoft Media Center better than the software that came with the device, but that software works OK as well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to cut the cable and still have a personal video recorder.

Bought this Dell Optiplex 7010 to replace an older Dell computer that was getting old and slow. This new one is much smaller than my old unit, runs very quiet and stays cool. First time I have used Windows 11 but I found it pretty intuitive and the initial setup was very easy even for this low tech guy. Can't believe how fast this computer boots up! My only complaint, and this is a Microsoft issue I think, is that the installed media player has no provision to rip CD's that I can find. (Told you I am low tech). That is the main reason I bought a computer with an optical drive. I ended up having to download the legacy media player from the Microsoft store and now I am a happy camper. Great machine so far.

I am using the product to connect my windows XP laptop and my Windowsv 7 Computer to my HP 8500A all in one printer and it works as advertised. Easy to install and use.

Hooled it up to windows vista computer and it picked it up right away to work with windows media center just like I wanted it to.

Bought this for our family computer. Mostly media center but the kids use it for homework too. Nothing too taxing, just Word and Excel and Google docs.  To future-proof, I got it with 32Gb of RAM.  You wouldnt think you would need this high-end spec for a family computer. But we have found the 10s of milliseconds of faster response really changes the user experience.  It is literally a delight to use this fast computer because response times are so quick.

I am very happy with this computer. Microsoft makes transferring everything a breeze.

Excellent computer, far better than any Microsoft based computer that I have used

I needed an all in one for my media center and this works great!

The absolute center attraction in our new Media Room.

Easy to use, quick boot, great portable Beware it comes with Windows10 Home edition (upgrade to Pro requires registration and download from Microsoft) Lots of junk software including Microsoft junk that cannot be removed (XBOX, etc.)
