Hi: I personally prefer the QPS cd burners... they're well-built (unlike LaCie IMHO), competitively priced and Mac supported out of the box. QPS is in Chapter 7 re-org (or something like that) at the moment which is a little scary but they seem to be coming out of it just fine (I think someone else either bought them or invested in them). Anyhow, I have about fifteen of their drives and they work great.
OS X supports cd-burning out of the box so you don't necessarily need additional software to support cd-burning... that is, as long as OS X supports your drive... check out the OS X page on apple.com, there's got to be a list somewhere of supported drives... and they continue to support MORE drives with each successive OS X release (for example, 10.2.4 explicitly states in the read me that it adds support for LaCie 48X burners). The QPS drives come with CharisMac Discribe bundled (at least they did) if you want to check out what third-party cd burning software can do for you. You should then go and download the latest version of Discribe off Charismac's web site (although you'll have to call tech support to get the passcode to decrypt the archive). For folks who want to view/convert AVI's, go to versiontracker.com and search for "AVI" and you'll find whatever you need. enjoy! ... e -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
