Read the post , read the post again , then check your info before going off on
a tangent 7200E, E E E as in EXTERNAL parallel port burner.These have been around
since before all pc's had usb ports and they do have an XP driver even though they
were made for the initial release of Win95, this was the first truly popular consumer
burner (7200e and 7200i -internal - 2x2x4) and retailed for about $450 in '95. I
figure my 7200i burned about 1100 disks while i had it and is still alive in a friends
PC.
