I saw a Lite On 8x DVD burner a few weeks ago for $40 after rebate. The
trouble is that I also need a video card, mine has leaking capacitors and
it could fail at any time. Plus, all the good deals on hard drives, video
cards, and burners are rebate deals (I'm in the U.S.). I don't want to
have $200 tied up for six months all at once.
