Alex Feinman has developed an amazing freeware tool called ISO Recorder v3 that lets you burn ISO images directly from Windows Explorer. This, combined with the Send To > CD drive feature already built into Windows, will suffice for the basic media burning needs of most IT Pros.
If all we ever wanted to do was to burn files to a CD/DVD/ISO image or burn a CD/DVD image to media, there is no need to spend $$ on media burning software.
ISO Recorder v3 supports Windows Vista can burn both CD and DVD ISO images. Check out Alex’s website for download and more information.

I was just looking at the Windows Vista Problem Reports and Solutions feature today. Windows Vista has been observing each time an application crashed on my PC. What’s more interesting is that it was actually finding out what went wrong by searching for known solutions to the same problem.
All I had to do was click on each problem displayed on this window and a solution pops up. And the best part is that most of the solutions actually does work!
Hmmm… Self-healing Windows. Interesting.

The most recent iteration of Microsoft’ flagship desktop operating system, Windows Vista, has certain enhancements that let you save $50 to $70 per year on energy costs to power a single computer.
It is believed that Windows is the operating system of choice on 100 million desks worldwide. Computers are not always in use all the time that they are powered on. Typically office PCs are kept on all the time – after office hours and over weekends. Estimates suggest that the world spends $5 to $7 billion a year powering ‘inactive’ computers! From an environmental perspective, this also means 45 million tons of CO2 emitted per year. Interesting to note: your choice of operating system affects your contribution to global warming!!
Critics say that if Microsoft had found out how to minimize these costs on the Windows XP operating system when it was released five years ago, the world would have saved $25 billion worth of energy. Re-thinking it liberally, new technology is supposed to do that: make things better and make lives easier.
A few decades ago, we may not have had car engines that are as fuel efficient as they are today. So do we blame the Hudson Motor Car company or Mercedes-Benz for not having developed energy-efficient engine models back then?
