I have a Yamaha 4416ez(IDE) that I bought 10/99. It's 2 years old and probably burnt 200+ cdr(w)s. There have been some coasters, but most were my fault. I haven't got a coaster in linux that wasn't my fault. The only reason I'd upgrade is for speed. I'd buy another Yamaha. If you are leary of Yamaha, go with Plextor. They are the best.
