Of course. Any burner software will do.

Yes. The ISO's are ready-to-go and make bootable disks. Just download
and burn 'em.

Not really true....make sure you burn the "image" and not the iso as an
iso..........really, I'm not all that proficient with MS burning apps,
but I do know that you need the "image".......it puts the bootable
sectors in the first 144mb of the cd...........correct me anyone if I'm
wrong........and I do know that ez cd creator and nero will do the
job........
Aside from that, I think the post by "Crashdamage" was very
accurate.....
Sometimes you just have to take the leap.....and be ready for some
frusteration at first.......and always, and I mean ALWAYS, backup
anything you just can't stand to lose...........
