The misinformation network is at it again.  I suggest many emails be sent
to Samsung.  I wonder what would happen if this got to slashdot :) [1]

[1] If I used slashdot I'd consider posting it.

Question 1: I wonder if your CD-RW Drive can be used
under Linux/Unix?
Almost no CD writer available in the market is
compatible with Linux/Unix. The only recommended
operating systems for using CD writers are Windows
95/98/2000/XP and NT. The recording programs do not
support most of the other operating systems. In other
words: under Linux/Unix etc. CD writers will work like
a normal CD-ROM drive.

I've just sent an e-mail with the model of CDRW I have
working here; wouldn't be nice if they receive TONS of
e-mails like mine?
