Your link did not work... this one should.  http://www.tomshardware.com/business/20040...ex_day2-19.html

The picture you referenced is of Windows XP Media Center Edition.  It is a specialized OS only available with the purchase of a Windows XP Media Center Edition PC.  I believe that the look and feel of XBMC was modelled after that of MCE.

If you look in the file copying.txt that is in the xbmc rar-file you can find the following

Yepp, Firefox didn´t show it.

First time in months i had to open IE

And that is NOT how XBMC looks, if yours do you are 1: Using a old build of xbmc or 2: Using a third party made skin.  <
