I want to buy a CD-ROM player for the following purposes (in decreasing
importance):
	1. bringing up A/UX and using under A/UX
	2. using it under MacOS
and if possible
	3. using it for Decstation/Sparcstation OS updates

What do you recommend, what did you pay, where did you buy, is there a 
review published recently?

Important issues for me are: speed, price, and how it looks.

I don't know anything about CD-ROMs, so please enlighten me on formats,
standards, etc. etc.

Many thanks in advance.
