Win a Dymo DiscPaint from TUAW
Despite the notion that one day optical media will seem "quaint," in the current world we deal with a lot of physical discs. So why not label those discs with something a little better than a permanent marker? The Dymo DiscPainter is a rather large but impressive printer for one thing only: optical media. Pop in a disc with the appropriate coating, set up the print job and boom: a nicely-printed disc for all that soon-to-be-obsolete media you're carting around.We've got our shiny review unit ready to send to the lucky commenter who is randomly selected via the comments. Maybe not great for the dorm room, as the Dymo is pretty big, but you could always use it to prop open your dorm door. To enter, simply tell us what was the last CD or DVD you burned (keep 'em clean folks!). Be sure to check out Steve's review of the DiscPainter. And stay tuned the rest of this week as we've got more goodies to come!

Now i'm going to spam your board up to greatly increase my chances of winning. :-P Actually I jumped in with both feet check boxed below still marked, and I'd like to know how to undo that, because I don't want millions of emails from each response that happens after mine.

You're nuts, or you may just be trying to jerk peoples' chains. Optical media will be here for a while. The densities are already changing but legacy discs are still playable, until they're damaged somehow. CDs have been around since the 70s and they've kept that disc size while greatly increasing the capacity. It's only a question of whether or not you have a drive to read it.
