The Media Center Integrator Alliance has just published two case studies demonstrating two approaches for installing Windows Media Center. The first case study out of Florida is a fully automated showcase home coming in under $50,000 with Windows Media Center at the core of the experience. The second installation is the winner of the Ultimate Install Contest and truly a reference design for best practices for how to integrate Windows Media Center into a customer's home.
