I love WinDVD. I haven't had any problems with it all all. What sort of problems have you had?

well, I've only supported it on the Dell systems at work, and it would freeze up, skip, and die on at least 50 % of our systems. Eventually even Dell stopped packaging it with our systems.
could have been the video card they installed, but something was definitely screwed up.

DVD Player is included with all Macs. Like Greg said, I use the Mac Remote to control it. Just as good as a TV.
