Can anyone speak to the usability of these CD-ROM drives under Linux?  The
fastest one is a 72x and it's EIDE.  There is some mention of drivers that
spooks me into thinking that these might be Windows-only critters.  The box
I saw at CompUSA today said (I think) it required Win98 or Win95 OSR2. 

There is also mention of a SCSI version of a slower model.  Might it be
immune to any Windows-specificity inherent in the EIDE version?
