    Ordering a V1S and just curious what Light Scribe is?

    I did a search, but didn't come up with a description.

    8X DVD-Dual Light Scribe

    Thanks!

    It is pretty cool, but note you need a Lightscribe drive, and you need to buy Lightscribe disks (Which cost more -_-') to use Lightscribe.

    Roughly $1 per DVD, so in a pack of 30 you can expect to pay $25-35 depending on brand. You can get these at any local store, where ever you buy your consumable computer stuff.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who loves the smell of a good Sharpie! >.> Good thing they're non-toxic...
