depends.  i got myself a nice plextor plexwriter.  i've never had a
single problem with it, ever.  never burned a bad disk with it.  out of
all the hardware i've ever owned, my cd writer has been the least
trouble.  i _highly_ recommend it.

i might use em.  :)

btw, just got home.  would you want me to write some disks for you or is
dave going to?
