Resources _shouldn't_ be a problem...I'm running an AMD 1.5ghz Duron, 512 ram, and I run blackbox/fluxbox mostly...
It's writing fine (or seems to, the cd's work). Could it simply be because it's using scsi emulation for the usb?
All this brings up another question; If I take the drive out of it's facny purple case and take off the little card on back (Which makes it usb and provides power) and hook it up like a regular cdrom, will it work?
