http://live.pirillo.com/ – What program can you use to burn DVDs on Windows XP?

Every geek seems to love Nero Burning ROM for managing video and audio files you want to burn to CD or DVD. Chris uses it, and likes it. If you're looking for powerful control over your files, this is the tool for you.

If you're not a big geek, you may want to use Roxio's DVD burner, since it's much more user friendly than Nero. If you're looking for a point and click solution, this is the tool for you.

On the Mac end of the spectrum, Roxio's Toast for OD X is one of the best tools you can use to burn your CDs and DVDs. If they could port their OS X features to Windows Roxio would probably take over the burning market.

What software do you use to put together your CDs and DVDs?

http://live.pirillo.com/ – A multi-monitor setup can give you much more screen real estate to work with, but so can one really huge monitor. Glenn wants to know if he should get two 23 inch monitors or one 30 inch monitor.

If there’s one absolute fact in this work it’s that Chris loves having a lot of screen real estate in front of him.

With two 23 inch monitors, you’ll actually get more space to work with than with just a single 30 inch monitor. Having a second monitor can help you be much more productive than you could be with just a single monitor, since you have more space to work with. Plus you have the added bonus of redundancy: if a monitor fails in a dual monitor setup you still have one monitor to fall back on.

It’s for these reasons that Chris recommends getting the two 23 inch monitors over the single 20 inch display.

You’ll need a couple of things in order to take full advantage of your monitors:

  • You’ll need a graphics card with "dual head" output support. Most modern graphics cards have this ability, but you should double check to make sure.
  • The combined resolution of your monitors cannot exceed the maximum resolution of your video card, otherwise you’ll need to purchase; for example, if your video card supports a maximum resolution of 1600×1200, but both of your monitors display 1600×1200, you’ll need a second video card to get the most out of your monitors.

Do you have any monitor recommendations?
