Lappy loves 'em! [Posted on 2007-11-12] Both Lappy and Lappy Junior (laptops #1 and #2) would angrily (and hastily) spit out all other CDs with great disdain and disgust, even refusing to acknowledge their presence. Ugly, you-don't-even-exist statements would then flash across Lappy's monitor after I inserted other CDs into Lappy's CD drive (such as "please insert disk").
I personally spent at least $3.2 million trying to find a CD that Lappys I & II would accept. The Maxell CD-R 700/80 are the ONLY disks that the Lappys love.
As a professional writer, and as the sister of a comp-sci professor, I do NOT walk away from Lappy at the end of the day without backing up my work. Every morning that Lappy Junior springs to life is a miracle of grace and I recognize that as a true fact. So I go through a lot of disks, backing up each day's work.
I know many would argue that the flash-drives are a better way to save, but I prefer the disks for daily work. They can be added to, and, if your flash drive had a catastrophic failure, you could lose months and months of work. If your CD failed, you'd lose a day's work (assuming you back up each night).
These CDs come in "color" which just means that the disks themselves are brightly colored (five colors) rather than the traditional plain silver. I prefer the silver, as I can use my handy-dandy sharpie markers and write a table of contents on the face of the CD.
And if we're talking preferences, I prefer the 100-count, which comes in a plastic case (which also provides for handy storage of recorded CDs). I have noticed that prices vary widely on this site. I paid about twenty-seven dollars for my 100-count of Maxell 48x CD-R.
