For what it's worth, you can get them refurbished
from Plextor,
supposedly, for about US$95 for a SCSI cd-rw of some sort. That's
probably the best price I've found on them. The only reason I didn't
get one instead of the Sony drive I finally settled on was that they
didn't answer my email, and I really didn't feel like playing telephone
games trying to find the right number ;)
That's a darn good reason not to buy _anything_, in my world. But I
do like Plextor readers. They're much faster in large reads than
equally-rated other brands, and they seem to get a better sound out of
music CDs. Plus, they'll boot darned near anything.
