[arachne] Re: BURNING CD'S UNDER DOS

Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Hi Brian,
                  Sorry, but I am not the one to ask
for advice on burning disks w/DOS.  I have
burned one or 2 using glennmcc's directions
but only as practice/trial.  
     I was responding to Greg M.'s problems
with CD's.   I find CD and DVD drives to be
rather unreliable compared to the good ole
FDD.   BUT...handy for backup !!
