Hi All,
I am trying to buy the Plextor CD burner that Apex has on the deals page. However, I was wondering if that CD burner can be used with laptops.

Thanks,
Peppermint

I may be talking out of my arse here, but you may be able to get a pcmcia firewire card and a firewire adapter for the cd-rw drive. i know you can do so with hard drives...

I'd just get a USB burner. There was an HP 4x4x6 for 113 at amazon, after a coupon and rebate.
