Hello,
I wanted to chip into this as i see alot of support for XBMC.
I recently got a old computer which i wanted to turn into a MediaCentre XBMC was my first stop as i had used it before on my mac and wanted to see if i could get it working on the old computer.
I setup windows and got a vanilla setup ready to go so i downloaded XBMC and tried to setup a couple of sources which turned out not work work and in hte end i turned in giving up on it as i found the configuration to be very clunky.
This is what bought me to MP i love it you have a separate app for the config and a separate app for the frontend which is great for configuration as i can see all my sources and settings without having to trawl through many different screens to get to what i want.
So essentially what i am saying is that i think MP is superior for first time users and also people who want more control over the way their MP works and behaves, i for one love it and will be sticking with it for some time to come.
