It seems to crash all the time for me, and it doesn't have nearly the features
(and I use them).  I really haven't gotten the hang of its noise reduction
system.  I guess it's the difference of turning a profit by working
efficiently with a $40 program, as opposed to doing a hack job that takes ten
times as long with a free program and not being able to feel good about
charging for a lousy recording.

CDRW's have a habit of getting left out around here.  Then the cats walk over
them, they get really dusty, etc., and I lose data.  Can you recommend a tape
drive?  Oh, and is that for IDE or SCSI?  If IDE, might a tape drive work on a
RAID controller?  I'm out of spots on the standard, non-RAID IDE, but have
room for another 5 devices on the Highpoint 374.
