I know I've had problems with CD-R's, but they were always cheap ones. A 
plug for Tummi: I have better luck with the people there too, not just 
the cd's :P
But, that said, I might try and find a DVD-R (IDE), as prices are coming 
down. Probably I'll just remove the existing CD drive, I don't can't 
find cables to fit more than one such device at a time (case shape 
problem combined with the location of the IDE headers on the m/b). If 
CD-R's are that hard to find (and I know from experience there is a lot 
of garbage out there in CD-R's), is there any particular DVD burner 
someone can recommend (IDE) that works well with Fedora/KRUD? Or is it 
worthwhile to buy an offboard controller and use SATA? [I have no idea 
if SATA is problematic and picky or "just works"]
