If anyone is considering an external drive then Firewire is the best
choice because you can boot off it and you can't boot off a USB.
I'd also recommend firewire because the iMac in question doesn't
support
USB 2. That means all burning over USB will be limited to 6x or
slower.
With firewire, you can go to the full 52x that most burners today
support.
That is very true. I didn't think of that. I am so used to USB 2 that
I forget how slow USB 1 was.
