burner nowadays for about $15, and the media is about as cheap as CDs but
much larger, so there's not much point in using CDs anyway.
If your motherboard only supports IDE, you'll probably have to buy an
SATA-to-IDE adapter as well, since the new cheap DVD burners all seem to be
SATA. So you might pay a total of closer to $25. I have an old IDE-only
machine with a bad DVD burner and will probably do that. (Better than paying
extra for an IDE burner that I can't swap into newer machines.)
