Them burners ain't cheep, I have one I paid 600 bucks for at least 10 =
years ago. And...they don't exactly come with user friendly =
instructions! It took me a long time to figure out how to use the damn =
thing let alone how to get into and modify the old Radx chips. Not =
really worth the time spent unless you're really into it for some =
reason. Definitely cheaper swapping out the board :-)
