And who'd want one? The last couple CDROM drives I've played with have
been 50x drives and way too loud. It seems with every speed increase
they just get louder, but I've not noticed that they feel any faster
than the old 12x I use most at home.

(Ok, if you're bulk dumping off the drive for duplication it might be
useful, but for any other use it's just bloody loud.)

Brian.
