First just let me say that I just got the Logitech Wireless iTouch keyboard and am loving it. I wanted a keyboard to go back and forth between my desk and tv/couch but didn't want something too complex that might cause conflicts...well this keyboard is it. It works from anyplace in my room on radio frequencies instead or that infrared junk. Yeah, I know this RF thing is probably nothing new but why do they still make ones with IRD???

Anyway...now I got the keyboard all setup and want to spraw out on the couch and watch movies. So what should I setup as a DVD player on my XP box. I have both WinDVD (came with video card) and PowerDVD (came with DVD drive) but don't know which is the better choice for XP. If they both work in XP which one is slicker?

Thanks

BTW: The Logitech keyboard works perfectly without software but you don't get the use of the special keys/buttons in 98 until you load their software. Although Logitech says they do not support XP yet I found it requires no additional software and all the keys/buttons to work fine in XP without any addional software. Very cool...XP seems to swallow whatever you throw at it :)

Yes that keyboard is nice as hell. I've been using it for a few months now and it's cool.

For DVD, I like to use PowerDVD in XP. I don't notice too big of a difference between Windvd and Powerdvd, but for some reason, I like Powerdvd better
