"the question was how each operating system would work, or not, with the 
hardware on my HP Pavilion _Media Center TV m7360n PC_ 
<http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1939274,00.asp>. The answer was 
that _neither OS worked perfectly_ 
<http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT9325931427.html> with the 
computer, but Ubuntu/MEPIS -- yes, the Linux system -- actually worked 
better with the PC than did Vista. In no small part, that was because 
Vista's built-in DRM (digital rights management) gets in the way of 
viewing or listening to high-quality video or music."

And, someday, I will arner one of them, and will be putting Mepis on 
it.  Well, I do wonder if http://pclinuxos.com
works as well.  I did run it on some demo machines in a store, but, 
wasn't taking notes at the time... so I am not exactly certain which 
models I tested.

All did work.
