Hey ppl,
I went to a local store and saw a CD having 6-in-1 XP (Home-Pro-Patched-Untouched-VLK and such making 6), pirated of course. It had only ONE CD and i was surprised, how they managed to have 6 XP instalation in ONE CD. I inserted the CD and Windows showed that it had 631 Mb (as shown below)*www.geocities.com/cyberdony2k/cd.gif
But when i opened the Directory to check what was in there, i saw all those XP versions had their own separate directories (on was in the root) and all of them had the size of more than 450 Mb. With cracks, patches and manuals, the total CD content was 2.93 Gb. And it is not a DVD (my CD player DOES NOT play DVDs).

I'm surprised to see this coz the CD they have used is a NORMAL cd-r which costs about Rs. 5 in the market.
And if you are thinking, Windows might not install from such a disk, i'm using the same one to type this. The two of them certainly worked (XP and Home untouched). I haven't checked others but should install, too as they have complete files needed.
If anyone knows how those ppl managed this, do let me know. If it is possible to Overburn to such an extent, DIGIT DVDs can be replaced by CDs and I won't have to go to my friend's house to see and copy my DVD content to 3-4 CDs ..............
