I have what may be a stupid question. Regarding this HP Pavilion Laptop, it says it comes with a SuperMulti 8X DVD±R/RW with Double Layer Support. Now does this drive write DVDs as well as CDs? Can I make an audio mix CD as well as burn DVDs? Thanks

Don't feel bad, I welcomed your first more critical viewpoint on this purchase. That's exactly what I was looking for by posting here. And thank you Stationchief, this type of insight is priceless and I'm so happy you were able to help me. THANK YOU BOTH

Thanks for the responses Stationchief and dv41114nr. This is my first experience with these black Friday deals and yes I did sleep til around 4:00am. The only reason I got up is because my son started crying around that time and after I got him to bed I decided to see what the big fuss is about. The last Staples HP ticket went to the people right in front of me, I was so close. Next year I'll be more prepared no doubt. dv41114nr, if I only plan on using the computer to basic things downloading media, using forums, burning DVDs, and I don't plan on gaming at all I should be ok with this one? right?

After missing out on Staples $400 deal which includes an HP notebook (G50-109NR) with 2GB ram, 120 GB hard drive, DVDrw drive, Vista and also a free HP printer and then missing out on circuit city's $400 deal for a similar HP notebook (G50-108NR) I was very dissapointed. My girlfriend picked me up Office Max's deal which has probably the least impressive HP laptop of these offers the (G50-102NR) for around the same $400 (saved around $150). It has all the same specs as all the other laptops, the DVD rewriteable, 2 GB RAM 120GB hard drive. The only difference is that it is powered by the AMD Sempron processor as oppossed to the INtel pentium T3200 and the AMD Athlon X2. Are there any tech gurus around today that can tell me if This deal is worth keeping or should I return it. I'm not going to spend any more than 400 and any laptop and this seems to have all the bells and whistles I need. Any insight will help.
