Personally I'd stick with lower case letters except to begin sentences or for names and personal pronouns - otherwise people like me will make smart alec posts and the moderators will warn you about violating one of After Dawn's most basic of rules . . .

offensive, inappropriate, or disruptive, please ignore it.
If you dont know how to ignore a posting, complain to
me and I will be only too happy to demonstrate . . .

Supposedly it is a very good burner. The lack of commentary on Videohelp.com tends would have me lean towards the 1650, but get the 1670 if you want DVD-RAM support. That's an excellent price regardless.


-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.

I would stay away from the 1670. They changed the chipset from what was being used in the 1640/1650/1655. Go with any of the other 3 models I listed instead. You'll be glad you did.

i hate to turn up not contributing to the thread but TNARIPPER, that's the 4th time i've seen you abusing that poor CAPS LOCK button. It really is one of the most annoying things on forums...

now hopefully the thread can continue with a little less volume...thanks
