I understand that the built in CD recording software is just a stripped
down version of Roxio EZCD 5, which to me, sucks. If I were to use Nero
anyhow, then the "bells and whistles" would be useless. There is also a
movie maker program in Win XP but also heard that it isn't very
sophisticated either. So to go ahead and install a better movie program
would also defeat the purpose of those included programs.
