Well, I've found one thing -so far- Windows 7 won't do. Play a typical purchased DVD in WMP/C on a RPC-1 era DVD-rom drive. It will quite happily play
it with a RPC-2 drive - the only type you can buy - but then that darn @%^*!$%!! thing of region codes rears its head. I've done a quick test with some at
hand DVDs and provided my local zones' code's present (R4), playback happens. A straight R1 disc....and I'm into that darn swap zones 5-4 times and
out.

Which means watching Sakura Wars, the Ghost in the Shell movies, Patlabor TV and any other imported DVDs I've got on my PCs has just become more
complicated. VLC can probably handle it (region code), just not look very pretty.

As for wifi site surveys....I'm still looking into that.
