Could someone please give some information about what makes the DW 1640 so wonderful?  Is it speed, quality, support?  I am nuts enough to track one down if it is really worth it.

BenQ drives were great all around burners and great quality scanners.  They had great firmware support.  Unfortuanly they are not around anymore.  I have one.  Still use it but just for scanning anymore.  The LG and Pioneer drives are great burners today.

Wow!  Now thats a find.  I don't use mine as a burner anymore (just a quality scanner), but you won't be disappointed.

Does what work?  The Plextor PX-740A is a BenQ DW1640.  You can cross flash it to be a BenQ drive if that is what you mean or intend.
