Good news for you then. XP Media Center is indeed XP Pro.

The only weird thing is if you want to join it to a domain. Micro$oft disabled the ability to join a domain with it because of the ability to use the "Media Center Extenders". More good news is that there is a couple of very simple work arounds for that problem. One way is to do a clean install and join the domain as you do the fresh install, and there are other simple ways to do it even if you don't do a clean install.
