    Recordable CD-ROM seems still to be 'in development'. There is some
debate about format which needs to be settled and it is still too
expensive.

    Setting up an IDE CD-ROM on a PC is one of those jobs that's not too
difficult if you know what you're doing. Unfortunately for most PC home
users, there's enough technical stuff involved to offer opportunities to
mess up. Mainly, the problems come from the way PC is set up. On a GS-X,
IDE stuff would be easy to install.
