Jason,

I'll bring my gnuburner tonight.  I've been burning it in this week ...
and burned out an adaptec controller and a SCSI drive in the process :(
                                                                                                                                    
The only other thing i'd like to do with it is to figure out why it
won't make audio cds out of some radio-quality 22 Khz mono music files,
not that that is critical, meaningful, or necessary.
                                                                                                                                    
Yesterday I burned-in the CD-RW drives with K3B.  I burned three iso's
simultaneously with these results:
                                                                                                                                    
/dev/hdb - KNOPPIX_v3.6-2004-08-16-EN.iso    - 699.5 MB

/dev/hdd - dsl-0.8.1.iso                     -  48.9 MB

hcc and hdd are on the same ide chain, and i presume they must have
been competing for bus bandwidth.
                                                                                                                                    
Here's a cd cover that i gimped up for the weekend:

Let me know tonight how we should change it.
