Decrypter，或更新的imgBurn，這裡使用前者（在那裡下載軟體請自行找找），可把DVD上的音檔轉成DTS檔：一定要使用IFO模式：</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'

一、ＩＴ在各大小機構心目中，都只是一個懂燒錢的部門，生產力既不能測量，部門之間又沒有大的發言權；除非閣下任職於是以ＩＴ服務來賺錢的機構，則另作別論。      二、即使非要ＩＴ不可，但亦不代表非在本港開發不可，只要付出多一丁點行政費用，在內地設ＩＴ部門，絕對比在本地的來得划算。    不過，閣下或會反駁：現在不是數碼年代，到處不是需要互聯網為基礎的商業系統嗎？的確，ＩＴ在商業應用上越來越不可分割，但看看那所國際性大型金融機構，最近那個『肥雞餐』，為何獨是「針對」ＩＴ部門呢？同樣地暴露了以上兩點；非核心的ＩＴ支援和應用，往往會成為被「開刀」的對象──管他其中任職有業界的立法會代表。    在此種種形勢之下，投身ＩＴ行業有兩個途徑：一是在「教育」界，</summary><link

Mahler)於1860年7月7日，出生在一個波希米亞的猶太人家庭之中，隨後不久即移居到奧匈帝國。幼年時已表現出其音樂天賦，六歲時被家人安排接受鋼琴訓練。      1875年，馬勒十五歲，被父親保送往維也納音樂院讀書。三年後前往維也納大學，旁聽過布魯克納(Anton Bruckner)授課；在大學時，馬勒兼任音樂教師之職，並開始其作曲生涯。   至1880年開始，他輾轉到過不少歌劇院為指揮；其間，從1884年左右，亦開始創作其交響樂篇：第一交響樂成於1888年，第二則在1894年完成。      到了1897年，馬勒被邀請成為維也納國家歌劇院的藝術總監，這是當時奧國音樂上的最高榮譽職位，亦是馬勒職業生涯的高峰。在任期間提升了維也納國家歌劇院的水平。到了1902年，和美麗富才華的愛爾瑪‧辛德勒(</summary><link
