Burning Issues With Vista
~ by Richard Rasker

Having heard that Vista's CD/DVD burn utility by default uses a nonstandard format, possibly as a result of yet another one of Microsoft's lock-in schemes, I decided to check things out for myself. That would also give me a nice chance to see what Vista was all about.

The plan was simple:

1. Locate a Vista box,

2. Bring empty CD's plus some arbitrary files on a USB stick, and

3. Burn CD's in several ways while making screenshots.

As it turned out, the planning was the simplest part by far. The rest is best described as a tale of frustration.

Wow, another crap article about Vista.

How much of that was even about burning a CD, which is stupid anyway, just use 3rd party applications.

No surprise than he compared it to Linux half the time in his mini impromptu review.

btw, why did he randomly decide to test out burning CD's on Vista if he's never even seen it before. Why would he care.. he's obviously going to hate it and never use it, so don't write articles about it.

I also use nero on vista.

I have to be honest though... Vista's Video-DVD maker is pretty cool...
