Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2007-11-12 
The only CD my computer seems to like!
Both Lappy and Lappy Junior (laptops #1 and #2) would angrily (and hastily) spit out all other CDs with great disdain and disgust, even refusing to acknowledge their presence. Ugly, you-don't-even-exist statements would then flash across Lappy's monitor after I inserted other CDs into Lappy's CD drive (such as "please insert disk").
I personally spent at least $3.2 million trying to find a CD that Lappys I & II would accept. The Maxell CD-R 700/80 are the ONLY disks that the Lappys love.
As a professional writer, and as the sister of a comp-sci professor, I do NOT walk away from Lappy at the end of the day without backing up my work. Every morning that Lappy Junior springs to life is a miracle of grace and I recognize that as a true fact. So I go through a lot of disks, backing up each day's work. Buying the CDs by the 100-count is the only way to go. I know many would argue that the flash-drives are a better way to save, but I prefer the disks for daily work. They can be added to, and, if your flash drive had a catastrophic failure, you could lose months and months of work. If your CD failed, you'd lose a day's work (assuming you back up each night).
The only bad thing about this particular product offering is the price. I'm not sure when in life any regular computer user will use ONE CD! Personally, I prefer the 100-count, which comes in a plastic case (which also provides for handy storage of recorded CDs). I have noticed that prices vary widely on this site. I paid about twenty-seven dollars for my 100-count of Maxell 48x CD-R. |  |
