I want to get a DVD burner instead, so I can burn both CDs and start to transfer our home movies over to DVD, the better to bore everyone with. All the DVD burners I've seen so far claim they need 256MB (got it), PIII or higher (got it) and 850MHZ (don't got it - only have 500MHZ). Is the speed really essential? Can I get by with 500MHZ, or will it either not work or be unbearably slow? Thanks!
