Bradley,

> Can anyone recommend a particular model that is good?

	I recently purchased a Hewlett-Packard Surestore CD-Writer Plus 8100i.
It has successfully burned data and music disks at speed=2.  (I have not
yet tried speed=4.)

	CPU:			Pentium 133MHz
	Motherboard bus:	Triton (66MHz)
	Bus:			PCI (3MHz) + Ultra Wide Scsi (80MHz)
	Kernel:			Linux-2.2.1
	Recording Manager:	cdrecord-1.6.1
	Soundfile converter:	sox-12.13
	Soundfile editor:	xwave-0.6-4

	I have downloaded, but not yet installed xcdroast-0.96e.

	So far, learning the software has been my stumbling block.  I have
had no difficulties with the Surestore under linux.  (I did have some
difficulty with the installation instructions, but there free tech support
was helpful.  The instructions are provided as a video with midi under
Quicktime/Windows.  I reported as a bug, that their installation turns off
midi before playing the instructions, so you get video but no sound.  The
actual installation was so trivial that no instructions were necessary.)

					Good luck,
