Pink_Floyd, how old is that DVD-ROM? Do you have any specs on it? I wouldn't want to buy something really old when I can get a new one for about 60 bucks. I just think that I need a DVD-ROM because of some games and later on add a DVD/CD burner. I was stupid enough to get a CD burner early and got a 4x drive that kinda sucks because I have to wait forever. Thanks.
