Plextor. They make the best CD writer.

What about Teac?
Have you ever heard of them? |

I don't know about the Teac, but I'd definetly go with the Plexor. It's pretty well accepted as the best CD writer. I bought an HP when I was in a crunch and needed a writer right away, and I really wished I had waited to get the Plexor.

Teac is fine, as long as it has Burnproof. Their later 12X and all 16X burners all do. If it has a "B" in the model number, it does. If the budget dictates and Teac is considerably cheaper than Plextor, it's a good bet.

I have been looking on AUT Direct, they are apparently a good place to buy from in the UK and I would like to try them out
Please could you look here and see what would be best. I probably won't be doing an awful lot of multitasking whilst running the burner, just on a few internet sites and MSN Messenger The Top 3 products on this page are the ones that are realisticly in my budget at 15 years old ![]() http://www.autdirect.co.uk/acatalog/...proofs_14.html Thanks very much, |

Also, I may be able to afford the TDK Writer on that page (I believe it is about the fifth one down)
Thanks, |
