It costs well over $300 in Moscow, now... Can anyone say something > good/bad about Panasonics (4r/2w)? What brands work, what doesn't? I've been eyeing the Panasonic 7502B. Some research a while back uncovered the fact that those who build parallel CD-R duplicators (were more than one copy is made at a time) exclusively use the Panasonic CDR. One engineer told me all other current production CDR's barfed when more than one was on the SCSI bus. Pricewatch and NetBuyer are turning up prices as low as $214 for the Panasonic. Guess I'm going to have to buy soon. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
