    Just received my M11X love it!!!

    Only downfall is no cd drive, already knew that wasn't worried.

    But now I've been searching and can't find crap, I'm trying to rip a Microsoft Office cd so I can install it from an external.

    How would I go about doing this?

    Thanks

    ISO Recorder will make an image of your DVD (you will need to rip it from an external ROM or rip it with a system with a built in ROM).

    Daemon Tools will mount an image of a DVD.
