I picked up a Lite-On DVD reader back in 2001. Only two complaints I
have with it: It has occasionally failed to read a CD for reasons
unknown, and it's got that damn region coding. I don't really use it to
watch DVDs much at all; it's just the principle. If I'd known that was
part of the package, I might have passed it on by.
