 TIA,

Which one's the most expensive?
Buy that one.

Well, except for the MDK 10CE CD1 not booting error, but the CD2 workaround 
was extremely easy.

Interesting. What initial problems ? - Can you specify,please ?
Reason for asking : I'm into buying a DVD burner too.

 TIA,

I have 3 LiteOn CD Writers, and they all work a treat, and I would imagine the 
DVD burners would work just as well, In fact when I am ready to go that way, 
I would choose one of these.

There was a trial survey, some months ago, though I am not certain on what LUG 
any longer, and the LiteOn was the oeverall winner in all cases.

Though this hardly qualifies the DVD burner.
