jsgolfman Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Someone help me out here. I know I saw the Toshiba CD-RW/DVD on sale for ~$85. I can't remember where. One of my guys wants one in his system. I have the Toshiba DVD and it works great, so want to put this one in his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruceleeon Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 I try to stay away from the combo drives. Some people like them better, I personally would rather have separate componets. If one fails, I still have the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsgolfman Posted September 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Quality usually suffers, too. But hey, the customer is always right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsgolfman Posted September 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Unfortunately, I think having two different drives he can stick cd's would be confusing. I will give him two. One for inserting the source disk and one for destination disk. I am also thinking of myself, since I will be the BOFH on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsgolfman Posted September 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 You're kidding, right? You never heard of the Bastard Operator From Hell? It's the, supposedly, fictional travails of a sysadmin and his users. Absolutely hilarious. Google it and you will find multiple references.

Rbreb13 Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 what the heck is that.. BOFH.. ?eah, haven't seen that one! I have a combo in my notebook, but space was a consideration. Otherwise avoid them like the plague! There are a ton of references in google, thx! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
