[ale] Cendyne external USB cd-rw

[jojerose at mindspring.com (Jeff Rose)]

Hello,
	Well after years of faithful service, my HP CD writer appears to be in
the throes of death.  It responds for only a couple minutes after boot
up then 'disappears' completely.  It seems to lose power and won't even
resond to the eject button.  So, BJ's wholesale has a Cendyne external
USB 2.0 cd-rw for $29.90.  I hadn't even thought about an external drive
as an option but the price is oh so tempting.  Anyone have any
experience with these?
