Retail will be the same packaging and software and accessories that you get when you buy from say Best Buy, OEM will come in either bubble wrap or a plain brown box and may or may not include software or accessories needed for installation.
You are very welcome, the price is usually only 5-10 bucks different. What drive are you looking at getting?
That was my next question,either Benq or Lite on!Have any suggestions? Price not an issue burn maybe 2-3 times a week.
BenQ DW 165X if you can still find them or the 1640, zipzoomfly still has some of the 165X's in stock for around $40. My next choice would be NEC 3550 with the Litey running a close third.
Looks like they are in stock LOCOENG: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...583&Submit=ENE&Manufactory=1583&SubCategory=5 Those benqs do sell like hotcakes,so they'll disappear very quick!!! Yo klinger: You can't go wrong with either one,unless fed ex drops it, LOL 1655- Lightscribing 1650- No lightscribing Depends if the lightscribing ability is desired. Both are fantastic drives. Can't go wrong with either one. I've heard the lightscribing will wear out a drive quicker. Too bad all the 1640s got gobbled up. That is my best burner between all 4 of my benqs.Phenomenal booktyping drives.They love the plus format.Good luck on finding any stand alone players that'll give you a no disc error after booktyping the plus media to dvd-rom. Beware of the BenQ DQ60 and the 1670. These have dvd-ram capability,but totally different chip sets.
