Well, I wasn't meaning to put down their English, if that's what you
thought. I know how hard English is to learn - it's probably harder than
Chinese, because there are so many exceptions, and so many meanings for
single words. My wife is Chinese, so I can appreciate how hard it is. And
I haven't learned more than a few words in Chinese!

The DVD Maker product is the one that often has a $20 rebate or so; hard to
lose at that price.
