On the look for the perfect speedy burner that can burn your CD in less than 5 minutes? Wish to have one for christmas? If so read the review i've just posted! Here is a snippet of the review:

Yamaha the well-known Japanese manufacturer that sells cars, pianos and more has just unleashed the world’s fastest CD burner. Generally Yamaha products are high end ones that are manufactured with great care and this burner doesn’t deny this. With this product Yamaha overwhelms Sanyo since the 16x recording technology from Sanyo will only be available in early 2001. This new burner can record CD-R at the incredible high speed of 16x, CD-RW in 10x and can read your normal CDs at the speed of 40x. Best of all, digital audio extraction can be done at 40x. This new burner is the fruit of Yamaha’s experience in the CD burner domain. As a quick history reminder in 1988 Yamaha introduced the first CD recording system for mastering purposes followed in 1990 by a 2x model to boost master production. Then in 1994, Yamaha launches the first 4x burner intended to general public that was enhanced later in 1996. In 1997 Yamaha renews its burners’ models by unleashing the first CD-RW 2x burner followed by 4x ones and more recently, at the end of 1999, Yamaha released the first high speed (8x) CD-RW burner. This new “16 write, 10 rewrite, 40 read” model is really a –jewel- and many burners fans will surely want one before they have reached the end of the review.
