as to which DVD +/-RW / +/-R might work with Mandrake Official 10. There are some tempting sales on right now and I'd like to take advantage ... Anyone know anything about I/OMagic or Micro Advantage products?
Thanks, Julie Owens
Either, both, which do you want, stay away from the dual layer types because of price, and almost total lack of blank media, this is a run-on sentence isn't it?

I am going to diagree here.
I just bought the LG 4120B _because_ it is a dual layer dvd burner that doesnt require a firmware upgrade to write dl disks (dvd+r9). YES media availability and price is a problem currently ($10US at sonystyle.com). But it is a 12X (+r) burner (or 2.4X dual layer) which works very well under mandrake 10. I paid $130 CAD here in edmonton at OEM express (roughly 100US). I expect that in a year I will be able to purchase reasonably priced dual layer disks that will allow me to make 1:1 copies of dvd's, or store 8.5gb of data. As a side note I have installed the newest version of K3B from cooker which now supports dual layer burning.
I read this review which convinced me this was the one to get:
