Thanks to all who replied (on and off-list) for all the advice. I went for
the Advansys card in the end, and managed to find last year's 24x8x8 speed
Yamaha CD-RW drive for just over £100. Couldn't really see the point in
spending twice as much to write a disc in 5 minutes instead of 10! So
assuming it all a) shows up and b) works I'll be a happy CD-burning bunny
again soon...
