About
I love trying out new things, especially when it comes to internet technology. I never really kept a journal, but it's something that I've always wanted to do. Now, everybody will get a chance to look inside my twisted, and somewhat-warped mind. I've also subscribed to Audio Blog, so a few times a week, I'll leave actual voice blogs. Very cool!

Plextor 712A (Scanned @ Decoma)

 
Plextor PX-712A DVD Burner
On NewEgg.com, the top-o-the line DVD burner from Plextor is the PX-712A for $189.99. I just bought one retail from Best Buy (only one) for $159.00 ($109.00 with my $50 gift certificate). Damn it for not having my 10% off coupon with me! This is definitely an error, since Best Buy sells the PX-708A for $179.99.

The Madison Heights store had only one (the sales guy said it shouldn't even be on the shelf yet). I suggest if anybody is looking for a DVD burner to check their local Best Buy for the PX-712A. This is a steal, as it's definitely an error! The burner has 8MB of cache (as opposed to 2MB) and burns at 12X (as opposed to 8X). Unfortunately, they are just coming out with 8X DVD+R media. However, I've been burning at 8X on 4X Memorex DVD+R media for six months with no problem. I just picked up some 8X media to see if it will burn at 12X.

I'm so glad you got that deal from Best Buy, guy!
