AAARRRRGGGHHHHH.

A bit temperamental to say the least.  (AKA JVC-2012)

When finally got "working" I got 40% coasters.

searching the web for new drivers or firmware kept coming up with other
people who had problems too and needed help.

I suspect it had a very small buffer but could never find out how big it
was.

I have seen a magazine which said this was the worst cdr ever made and JVC
didn't want to know.

I was in my local shop a couple of weeks ago and saw them trying to flog one
of the devils to somebody.

My (ex :-) ) friend  now uses it as a �300  4x reader.
