I "assumed" that that is what Don was referring to, but was 
"encouraging" him to select more "time-tested" technology..

It seems that with the age of EIDE (10+ years), the age of SCSI (20+ 
years) and the age of "ide scsi adapters" (2 years?? or less), that the 
problems of Interoperability would be much Greater with the "newer" 
technology than "older" more "time-tested" technology.

computer be given over to the single task of writing, "burn

I have my CD writers and DVD writers all by "their lonesome", on the 
Secondary IDE channel...
