[QUOTE="Vimes, post: 856148, member: 87494"] To have MP 2.x only supporting Windows 7 (not sure about 8) would then mean supporting and maintaining two versions, at least for the short / mid term. I am not sure of the demands that might bring on the team or developers, but it doesn't seem ideal. For some people it might make MP 2.x impossible to use as not everyone has the desire or cash to buy a copy of an operating system to replace their own functioning XP or Vista. Remember these are simply HTPC's and cutting edge OS's and hardware is not needed to get more than adequate performance. Also there is a movement to get a version of XBMC (Raspbmc) running on a Raspberry Pi - now that would indeed be impressive.! But I do note in the detail about MP 2.... So, unless that position has changed, I'm not sure if Vista or XP might well be able to run the MP 2, in some way, in the future..? [/QUOTE]
