i think being a guinea pig is great! and you can take it from me. i have 2 right now, and have had more over the years since i was a kid (right now i remember 4 more but i'm not sure if i lost count, and that's not counting lots of baby-guinea-pigs :D ).

they're real cute!
and not a bad life at all.
just laze in the cage on your sawdust and hay, no worries, no cares. food delivered to you regularly, and sex whenever you want it (assuming you've got a female guinea pig in your hutch with you :) )
quite a good life really :P

:wink: :lol:

Okay, I'm convinced. :D Where do I sign up? Of course, I want the female in my hutch option...

P.S. Sorry, monopoly, I don't mean to make light of your complaint by contributing to this humorous side-thread. I do understand your frustration. All I can say is that is that DVD burning is still at the stage where the technology is advancing quickly and not yet totally perfected, so simply by buying a burner (from any manufacturer) you are putting yourself in the position of being a guinea pig to some degree. I do agree, though, that the advertising paints an overly rosy picture.
