It looks like the MCE 2005 beta is out. I received the original invitation, but I guess I wasn't selected. Sigh. Guess I'm not a good enough beta tester ... :)
(You can grab the new theme, Royale, over here).
According to this thread, there are a few neat features being added. The most important to me is the first one on that list: HDTV support.
Let me say that again: HDTV. Recorded. On my MCE. (And with advanced editing tools for it, no less).
DROOOOL.
So, seriously guys, where do I send the check to get on this beta??
