Since Media Edition is not sold seperately but only in "media Edition Computers"
how are you aiming to accomplish this???

Hi,

It is now sold separately, but I don't believe it is being sold as an
upgrade, but rather as an OEM clean installation (no upgrading).

This must be a new [very, very recent change]. I have not yet seen it
being offered for sale anywhere at all + a recent visit to the Microsoft
site [within the past week] did not reveal this change. I do not want
it but others appear interested.

Hi,

You have to pick it up through an OEM dealer, there are (at least as far as
I know there are) no retail distributions.

No, it can't. WinXP MCE is available to the general consumer market
only as on OEM product on specifically designed systems.
