Exactly, but a Linux distro might be a bit "confusing" or "difficult" for the average user who just wants to plug in a HTPC and be able to watch movies. I think the idea they are working towards is something along the lines where basically buy a HTPC and are 100% ready to go, ability to play all movies/music. This way the OS stays clean but can be used as a computer as well, but everything will be stored on a normal hard drive as the motherboard setup will not be writeable (other than Windows update). This idea is a ways away as it will take all sides in on it.
