Summary: not compatible with OS 10.3
Review: Although QPS does seem to have drivers for for Mac OS 10.1 and 10.2, they will not create one for 10.3. In the few years in which this drive actually worked with my computer, its performance was mediocre -- certainly not worth sticking with an outdated OS.

Review: Couldn't get it to work on my laptop (with Windows Me), then on my work computer (Win 2000 pro), it worked on win 98SE, but crashed frequently. Waste of money. Gonna return it.

Summary: Nobody here needed support, YET.
Review: I bought a QPS back in April, I had configuration issues right away.
I followed the tech support format and emailed them. Giving them benefit of possibly being busy or email issues I emailed four times over four weeks from seperate servers. They do not respond through support.
Now the hardware failed, I repeated the email attempts with no response and have phone support three times in two weeks to give up in Cue after 45 minutes. No 1-800 number.
Now I have a very high phone Bill coming and a useless QPS device that I will eat also.
Please don't allow companies like this to thrive, which they all too commonly do in todays market.
Buy elsewhere.

Summary: Very fast, well made
Review: I purchased this about a year and half ago and am very, very pleased with it. Solid and reliable. I have used it on 98, 98se, 2000 and now XP. It simply works. If I was buying one today, I might opt for the ISB 2.0 and I wish it had "burn proof" but, in all honesty, if everything in Windows is working and your machine is over 600 MHz, under-runs are really an infrequent occurance. Not fast by today's standards but unless you are burning a lot, I don't find it to be a big deal.

Summary: Works great!
Review: I was a little hesitant to buy this burner based on the negative reviews - but let me say that it works perfectly with my Mac powerbook. No errors - no problems. It's a little big and bubbly so I'd deduct half a star but all in all the performance is fine.

Summary: Mac users avoid.
Review: I've had one for about 2 years now and it has worked, but it has not worked just as much. I've only been able to use it in 1x and 2x speed, every time I try 4x it fails to write the disk. Not very reliable over-all. I've never been able to copy directly one disk to another, which it's supposed to support, I always have to copy the disk to my harddrive first. Most importantly- it will not work with OS X. QPS refuses to create a new driver for it. Essentially they do not support the usb que anymore. They say Apple needs to create the driver, but it's their product so essentially it's a dead-end for anyone ever thinking of upgrading to OS X. UPDATE- It looks like an OS X driver has been made. Also, I think it would probably work better with the new version of Toast from Roxio (I have version 4 which is no longer supported). So... it's probably better than I say it is.

Summary: Haven't Bought It, Still Love It !
Review: The only reason I didn't give this product 5 stars was because I don't actually own it, although my friend does, and he says it works like a charm! Based on the outer appearance of it [although you really shouldn't judge electronics by their appearance], it looks really cool; cute, even. But let me tell ya! From what I've seen, this thing is awesome! My friend writes 600Mb CDs in about 15-20 min! And it hardly ever gives him a "Buffer Underrun Error!" Also, he doesn't even need a separate CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive to play the games that he burns; this little guy also reads great! All in all, it's worth the buy. Of course, you probably think a little less of my opinion, since I don't own it, per say. But I have borrowed it numerous times, and based on my experiences with it, this is really worth the money!
