After all the discussion here about DVD recorders, I finally broke down and
bought one.
I'm very happy with it too. I did have a problem at first, but found that it
was Nero and not the DVD drive. After 114 meg worth of updates to Nero, the
program ran without a hitch. I now have all the pictures from 2001 - 2004 that
were on my computer, on a disk, in slideshow fashion and it works in my home
DVD player to boot!
Here is the drive I got. http://tinyurl.com/4ggxz

I got it at Staples for $89.00 and the site shows it for $119.00. The cheapest
(at the time) that pricewatch had it for was $99.00. So, I feel like I got a
good deal on it.
The drive itself was a snap to put in my computer and it recognized it right
away. And once I got all the updates for Nero (I thought at first it was the
drive so did a flash on it, which was an update to the drive anyway) this drive
was FAST. I created the slide shows and set it to burn, went to get a cuppa
coffee and on my way back, I noticed the door to the drive was open and thought
"crap, it didn't work" but it did, it was just that fast. Color me happy!
Joe, I remembered you mentioned "cataloging" at one point in all the
discussion. Can you tell me what you use, please.
