Pros: - Convenient design, easy disc access - Linux support: plug-n-play, RPM and DEB installers of Nero burning software included - Ideal for laptops: takes only one USB port, needs no external power

Cons: - The lead and stop-button are somewhat loose - USB cord is too short

Overall Review: Haven't tested Lightscribe yet, but regular CD-R, DVD±R and DL burned with no problems
