Hi,

I was looking at the product matrix for Vista, and notice "DVD Maker" is
not available in business/enterprise versions. Does this mean business
users will not be able to burn a PowerPoint presentation to a DVD
without additional 3rd party software?
 
I guess its more of a consumer feature than a business feature. You still
can write DVD Presentations from within PowerPoint using the Package to CD
feature, I don't know why you would need a PPT presentation on 4.7 GB DVD
disk. I must also note DVD Maker is not in Home Basic, I guess its an
incentive to choose Home Premium or Ultimate. Home Basic, Premium, Business,
Enterprise and Ultimate should all support burning data files to DVDs and
DVD RWs.

Burning data DVDs from the Explorer shell and making DVD movie disks using
DVD Maker are two separate features. The former should still be in the
business versions AFAIK.
 
Hi Chris,

That's the part I was trying to understand; if what you're saying is
correct it makes perfect sense. Obviously we don't need to make "movie
DVDs", but we may need to burn files to CD/DVD.
 
Thanks Adnre,

If it supports burning data files without "DVD maker", that's perfect.
 
Thanks Andre,

That's the answer I was hoping for! The "DVD Maker" thing confused me -
I thought it meant you can't write data to DVD without it.
