Media Center is a load of practically useless software that just bogs down your machine. You should be happy you don't have it.
I assume since you linked to something from HP that you own an HP. You are NOT limited to hardware avaliable from HP. If you can find something less on say Newegg, it should work just fine. You just need to be sure it's compatible with your computer. Are you sure your laptop has an Expresscard slot?
