Added a CD burner to this system today. This will simplify backups. Little trouble getting it configured under Linux. If anyone out there is a Linux Guru (or can help get this burner working), please let me know.

I met a new girl at a barbecue, very pretty, a blonde I think. I don’t know, her hair was on fire, and all she talked about was herself. You know these kind of girls: ‘I’m hot. I’m on fire. Me, me, me.’ You know. ‘Help me, put me out.’ Come on, could we talk about me just a little bit?” — Garry Shandling
