Have a Yamaha at work and an Acer at home, both IDE. It's not "difficult" to get ide-scsi emulation going (there *is* the CD-Writing HOW-TO to help you get started), but if you want the ultimate in ease of installation, you probably want a SCSI device. The Yamaha at work burns at 8X while copying directly from the other 20X CD-ROM on the same IDE chain without running the buffer empty or even close to empty. Machine has 64MB RAM and a PIII-450.
