Who's got the best seat in the digital living room?

It's no surprise since it's "Ed Bott's Microsoft Report" but he's awfully generous toward the Media Center combos in that comparison. He even gives the Media Center (Vista) line item the capability to record HDTV from cable/satellite. The copy I'm using certainly can't do that. Sure, it "might" be able to do that in 2007/2008 when we finally have cable card capable PCs but if he's counting future capabilities in the comparison he's got it marked wrong for just about every product in the list. I guess only the MS products get such generosity.
