You can get an idea here of what I would like to do
http://www.bestbuy.com/ComputersPeripherals/DrivesStorage/CDRW.asp?m=488&cat=511&scat=514
So all information is displayed side by side, most of
the time used to help decide between 2 or 3 products
[bestbuy limits 10 selections in their comparison]
The array is the part I need help with. I am not sure
if what I had thought was the right track to pursue.
Thanks much,
olinux
