Can anyone recommend an external dvd recorder for my 1ghz powerbook?
What features should I be looking for and at what prices?
Any recommendations for an online seller would be welcome too.

A big thumbs up from me for my latest find - moinx. I've recently found
myself wanting to do some offline wiki editing for a work project,
