You don't need lots of RAM for burning CDs with Toast. I used it with 16
MB and it went fine in double speed.
Are you folks using SCSI, or what?
Of course. On Vintage Macs there's no IDE (except some Powerbooks and

From the replies to my posting about using a CD burner on something like
IIci, it seems that it can be done very well!
