| apollo13nut's Full Review: Micro Solutions Backpack CD-RW Burner |
I bought my MicroSolutions BackPack at a garage sale with all documentation and cables (25-pin to USB, PC Card, Parallel, power) and disks (3.5" floppy with DOS Drivers and CD with Burner Software). It has never failed me yet. I recently got an older laptop for free as it wasn't booting Windows. I found that the internal 8X CD-ROM no longer spins but is still detected. I used the BackPack to install Windows with DOS support when used on the printer port.
The only downsides I've found so far are that there is no DOS support for the PC card and I wish there was and it must be plugged in.
Was well worth the money. A great product.
