Anyone have a rewritable DVD? I've been thinking of getting a rewritable DVD for backup purposes (well, I'm thinking of retiring the old VHS-C camcorder and moving to digital, but that's more research). I've got a CD-RW, but with only 650mb per CD, it's not as flexible as the 4.7GB available on a DVD. Plus, I've got two computers to backup -- both mine and my wife's. I've seen the most press on the HP DVD200i. It sounds like a pretty decent drive with some nice capabilities. It supports both the DVD+RW and DVD+R as well as CD-RW. I still need to do some reading about the disadvantage of no DVD-RW format (does it matter?). Anyway -- if anyone has any opinions, let me know. 3:51:19 PM

Lilo and Stitch. My Lilo and Stitch review available here. Enjoy! [Justin Rudd's Radio Weblog] Thanks for the review! We were planning on taking the kids to see this next week since I've got the week off (this was planned -- not forced. Sorry Justin) 3:15:45 PM

Thank-you Microsoft I want to publicly thank Microsoft for releasing the Rotor (a.k.a. SSCLI) sources. I am totally amazed that virtually any question that I have about the runtime can be answered using the sources. [IUnknown.com: John Lam's Weblog on Software Development] 2:19:05 PM

MCAD for Microsoft .NET. Microsoft has just announced the Microsoft Certified Application Developer credential [link]. Sorry no C++ for now :) This begs the question, how important is it to be certified ? [/serdar/] 9:26:38 AM
