I guess I've been living on the edge:-) I've got two CD/DVD burning
programs installed on my XP Pro machine in addition to the mostly useless
MS stuff, and things are working just fine.

To make things even more interesting, I've also got some MS software
installed that will allow you to open .ISO images as virtual CD drives.
This is nice when you want to be able to install something from your hard
drive but without copying a whole bunch of files to some directory. The
.ISO image is a single file.
