    What’s stopping me is that I haven’t had a CD burner in like 12 or 15 years. But you’re right about the rest of it.

      External USB ones are free in boxes of Frosted Flakes these days.

      I have a genuine honest to goodness 5.25" bay mounted Blu Ray burner in my tower right now. Hey, you never friggin’ know. It comes in handy every once in a while. There’s a machine in my basement with an LS-120, a Zip drive, and a 5.25" floppy drive in it that all still work. Occasionally I still find myself needing to get some monumentally important ancient file off of some kind of floppy disk or other for somebody.
