Guys, I'm sorry but I keep hearing this myth bandied about left, right and centre. MS Windows 'will' play DVD's out of the box with no extra software.
I should've mentioned this, too. Yes, NT 5.1 (a.k.a. XP) does - out of the box - allow for DVD playback. You may get a bluescreen but you get DVD playback.
And you can play unencrypted DVD's out of the box with linux as well. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
