Windows Media Center to Go Mainstream in Vista?

Will Vista ship with Media Center built-in? That is what analyst are talking about and pretty confident that it will. I say no. It won't. The only reason Microsoft might go for it is when sales of MCE machines slow down or even stop which is not the trend at the moment. I think it would be smart if Microsoft makes Media Center functionality available as a standalone software capable of running on any Windows machine, that is Vista and later.
