Leith, I took a peek on Cutting Edge Computers' web site (<
http://www.cedgec.com>) (out of curiosity ;-) and noticed that the $32 case
was for USB only. All the FW cases are $50 and up (as an FYI) so you may
want to go with a known quantity (i.e. bundled case) vs. saving $10 or $20
with an unbundled case.
Make SURE that you get a FW case as your iBook does NOT support USB 2.0! It
is impossible to burn a DVD over USB 1.1 (it would take days and no software
or DVD burners support it).
Eric.
