You have listed all software solutions. Intel has noticed that since the software is out there (and seems to be popular), there needs somebody to take charge of hardware compatibility. For example, hardware compatibility has always plagued MCE -- in fact Microsoft required that only specific OEMs could purchase and sell MCE solutions because of the hardware compatibility issue. Intel wants to be able to allow consumers to purchase ViiV compatible video cards, along with ViiV certified platforms (P4, Centrino), to be able to create their own non-OEM Media Center solutions. |
