Seems to me he SHOULD buy a Phillips... after all, it's not every day
you get money back to buy a new product that is several generations
ahead of the earlier product. The reason you got that money is because
Phillips misrepresented the storage capacity of the drive, and
unfortunately for them, they sold one to a lawyer with some time on his
hands. Since HP used the Phillips unit in their computers, people
owning those computers also got a settlement.
So don't complain, you got use of the original drive way back when CD-R
was young, then you got cash to buy a brand new drive today. Most of us
just have to junk the junk.
