>>Actually, Edwin, I can tell from your post that you are wholly unfamiliar with the way these low-cost CD recorders work. It's not one mistake and toss the disk as you so incorrectly suggest. Unless and until you reach the 640 megabyte disk capacity, you can read and write as though it were a floppy.<<

Rod -

You mean I can just use the DOS copy command? Wow! When did that happen? Oh, right, now I remember. Never.

You absolutely cannot read and write to CD-R disks as if they are floppies, Rod. I've used them, as I'm sure Edwin has as well.

Since you obviously can't have made that statement on purpose, I can only assume that the whole sentence was a typo.
