I make about 20 CDs

of the current 3.1 beta every week. I use cheap media at 8x and an auto-changer (my daughter, I pay her $5 per sit). $3 for 200 CD-Rs from a source (about 4 bad out of 200) that gets bad batches from Imation.

I nearly always could have made more. It is amazing how many people are amazed at how easy it is.

PPPoE works nearly instantly too. I know, I have had to use it from time to time for that. Once to verify the machine itself was good. To prove to ISP thier software was Toast as they delivered it.

What an amazing world we have before us.
