Microsoft is expected to show off later this month a new version of its Windows XP Media Center entertainment PC software. The company has scheduled announcements on Sept. 30 to take place simultaneously in four cities: New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Redmond, Wash. At the September events, Microsoft will display the upgrade to the Media Center operating system, code-named Harmony, according to sources.
The specialized version of the Windows XP operating system provides an extra interface to make it easy for people to view photos, listen to music and watch videos on a television hooked up to the PC.
