Heh - check out the latest GS+ Magazine.. there is an article in there
that cost Diz $142 bux about this very subject.

(it boils down to: your best bet is probably the Apple 300e, or the Chinon 535)

As for DiscQuest, no.. not as far as I know.. drivers are the
responsibility of the drive manufacturer, not the software you run on the
drive.  HOWEVER, if you have a RamFast from Sequential Systems (makers of
DiscQuest), you should not need any further drivers (though you may wish
to confirm this)
