In the following (taken from an XML Schema), MUST the monetary amount always contain 2 digits? And if it doesn't have to have two digits to the right of the decimal, can all 12 digits then be used to the left of the decimal?

The sound on my laptop is really low, no matter how high the volume control is set. If there's any noise around me, it's hard to hear my laptop, even with headphones on.

This is gonna be long but please read, I need help with this purchase. I just got hired with a work from home company and they have certain computer requirements. They require WINDOWS 2000, XP OR VISTA, INTEL PENTIUM II, 300 MHZ, 600 FREE, AND GREATER THAN A 256 PROCESSOR. If I purchase the following computer from dell, are the requirements going to be met? It has xp home, intel core 2 duo, 250 gb hard drive, cd/dvd writer? I don't know how to compare apples to apples. The price I was given for this system is 950.00 - ist that about right? Please help... I need to buy this system asap. I would rather have the xp than the vista at this point.

I want to get MS Office 2007 but see the price is highly variable depending where I go to shop. Any suggestions for the best reliable of getting 2007 for as little money as possible? Don't tell me Limewire or Bittorrent, looking for legal ways to get this at low cost. It is a must that I get the CD's by the way, not interested in downloading it remotely.

I have a DivX and VCD compatile DVD player and a whole bunch of .avi files that I would like to watch on it, I know that I can just copy the .avi files to a DVD-R and they should be watchable but i did this the other day and the first 2 episodes of the show I was watching were fine but the last 3 had problems with the sound, it was out of synch and getting worse. I checked my PC and this didn't happen with the actual .avi files there so I can only assume it hapened in the burning process.

My question is, I have Nero 7 and would like to convert the .avi files to some format (DivX or VCD or even DVD) that doesn't take forever to convert and is easy to use etc. I cannot find a converter online that isn't freeware and fully working etc, I have Nero 7 Ultra Edition but can't figure out how to use it to do what I want and I'm getting more and more frustrated...! Can anyone help me????
