Why would you want to install Media Centre - every intel Mac ships with Front Row.

Come to think of it, every intel iMac ships with Mac OS X and iLife  :-)

No drama here. We've done an iMac and a Macbook Pro without issue. Make sure
you have a genuine Windows XP Service pack 2 CD. Just follow the

You can slipstream a SP1 Genuine disk with the SP2 download from Microsoft's site. This will work (as that is what I did!). Google slipstream SP2 and there are a number of helpful sites that will be revealed.

Also, if you plug in an external cd drive, you can install the Windows Media centre version of Windows as well. At this point, Google is your friend :-) Lots of info out there on what has been tried. If you are after a local flavour, check out the forums at appletalk.com.au. There is a thread that is almost at 500 on people's experiences with bootcamp.
