      They still are nowhere near low enough to interest me.

      A penny saved is ridiculous.

      ...and blanks prices steadily up- at least currently.

      @ geoff an idea here for mass storage would be partition backup to a dvdr or 3 instead of 30+ for 20 gig etc

      They are great too for emu ROM collections, I've got all my MAME stuff on 2 DVDR's now which is nice as all I have to now do is put one disc in my burner and the other in my reader and I then have full access to all games without having to keep taking out and replacing CD's every time I want to swap a game.

      I still have'nt bought one yet, but will soon. A friend of mine just made me a dvd-r disc with 0001-1000 gba's and the visualboy emu on it and it plays straight from the disc. It's better than having all those roms on my hd.

      Next week I'm going get this over with and order a dvd burner. I waited all this time for the one from lite-on, only to be disappointed by the price. So I'm just going to get the pioneer a05/105.

      You just cannot go wrong with this drive m8 IMO, espcially now the hacked 2X firmware is out and works so well.

      I have yet to burn a single coaster with this unit and I have burned one hell of a lotta DVDR's I can tell you!

      Try an AOL DISK any version...
      Must say I'm still looking for a good price firewire DVD burner still not in a rush since I don't burn that much any why...
      But my DVD movies could do with backing up....
      Tanx You!
