I bought a reconditioned T23 and run Mandriva LE 2005 and I'm really happy with both. The Thinkpad came with a DVD player but I really need to burn some music CDs. Can anyone suggest a good internal CD-RW which works well with the T23 and K3b and will burn CDs that will play on most domestic CD players. I also have winblows 2000, which I hardly ever use. Nev.
