Yeah...I mean I have nothing against the guys that play Diablo 2 (great
game) but I have one quibble. The burner's on the Windoze box :-|

Now, whenever someone wants to burn something they can't...as both burning
and Diablo 2 take a heck of a lot of time. Can I suggest that a dedicated
box be set up for the burner[1]  and call it the "Burning only box" or
simmilar (ie. people that want to burn have priority over others).

A low end pentium should suffice and when set up with linux would be great
:)
(although linux doesn't run Nero...which is a minus I can live with)

I'm willing to help set this up if anyone agrees (I know this subject is
best brought up in a meeting but what the heck...)

Cheers,
Paul

[1] if this is done, a new burner is a must (2x is a bit antiquated.. :P )
