Warm...Pioneer DVR-A03 DVD/CD Burner for $370 at Royal Computer

[kevman]

Don't know much about Royal Computer Inc, but they have this DVD burner for $370. That's the cheapest DVD burner I've seen, don't they usually go for $450+??

Linktified for all your lazy booty enjoyment .

EDIT: Both seem like okay deals, but unless you do DVD authoring for your job, I wouldn't recommend shelling out the cash for these things just quite yet. Wait until they at least go to the mid 100's and dvd becomes the new standard. My 0.02 cents

if these guys are affiliated with royal camera STAY CLEAR -- they have something like a 0.5 out of 10 rating

Well, their Reseller Ratings shine. 7.0/7.0. That's from ONE comment, however, which could have come from anywhere, including the company itself. Stay away like the plague.

FWIW, I've placed 4 separate orders there. 2 motherboards, A03, and a 60 gig drive. No probs whatsoever.

the prices on these are coming down pretty quick.

I'm gonna wait to, with 24X CD-RWs often found for less than $100, DVD-R cannot be far behind. But for the "early adopters" use this to PM other stores.

Stay away! 1.8 at resellerratings.

I would prefer getting it from Computer Geeks. Its still cheap and not have to worry about a headache down the road. I am still considering getting one. I want one since the movie burned with a PowerMac worked on all my DVD players, however the first disc that I burned on the PowerMac, I got a buffer underrun. Since these discs are $5 each, I am wondering if I should wait until a burn proof model comes out. Anyways, here is the link:
