Re: burner purchase tips?

["Lee McC" <leemcc1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would never gainsay a Plextor recommendation - they aren't the Cadillac of
burners for nothing - but if someone wants a tight little unit that supports
CloneCD and will last forever (Seeing as how I won't be around at the end of
forever I feel comfortable making that statement  ;o) ) and costs less than
100 bucks, the Teac 16x is well worth looking into (I believe the model # is
516EB or CDW516EB) the 12x is also a good deal if you can find one even
cheaper.  Solid burners that aren't as picky about media as you should be.
(And they do good DAE)

:o)
