Creating 2000 DVDs - How ?

Hi all.

My alma mater is going to have its 100 birthday bash next month. We
have already produced a documentary of our school, and would like to
burn 2000 DVDs to give them out to the participants of the birthday
celebration.

Since this is an in-house production, we would want to do everything
ourselves. However, burning 2000 discs is not exactly fun. So I am
trying to find a way to speed up the task.

In our office, we have 8 machines that we can use to burn the DVDs,
all of them are Pentium D 925 machine (3GHz, dual core, 2MB of cache,
3GB of RAM each) and we have a total of 32 DVD burners, all running
XP.

My experiment so far is that if I use Nero to do the burning, I can
only run the maximum of 3 DVD burners per machine concurrently,
because if I put 4 DVD burners there, XP crashes.

The hardware can handle much more than the 3 DVD burners per machine,
but apparently if I run more than 3 instances of Nero on XP, things
get really ugly.

We have the ISO file for the DVD, and my question to you is - Can
anyone please tell me if there's any other DVD burning software that I
can use to burn the DVD ?

In other words, I am looking for a DVD burning software that is much
smaller and lighter than Nero. Is there such a thing ?

I do know about the option of letting the pros doing the DVD burning,
but since we already have the hardware, I like to look for the right
software that can do the job.

Would appreciate very much for any of your ideas / suggestions.

If you can suggest a freeware, or not so costly alternative, even
better.

Thank you all !
