When I stated earlier that someone alledgedly once made a 16-bit cardbus 
card, I meant a 16-bit USB card, specifically. Since all USB cards are cardbus... 
well, you see my mistake...

I guess it wasn't cardbus; I am obviously not too knowledgeable with the 
terminology. Anyway, like I said, I have never seen one; and I have been really 
looking.

Well I guess THAT ends my little experiment!   :-D

Well, I will still be interested in knowing whether a 1400 can burn on a CD 
or DVD...
