I found out that my version of Vista includes WMC.

Is it any good, or a big hassle?

I fiddled for a couple hours last night trying to connect to my Vista PC
from my 360 with no luck. it'd get as far as 'connecting to media center'
then time out, which is odd because I've connected before, but about what
one should expect from MicroSoft...

Er, I have zero problems w/ Media Center.

=================================

are you wired or wireless?

I used to be able to connect ok, but would have serious controller lag.
once my album art was completely loaded though, it was usable.  I have no
idea why I couldn't connect at all last night, as nothing's changed on my
network...maybe SP1?

Wired.
