Nope a burner works just like a rom. with a dvd burner you can do everything with it. just get one that plugs into your usb port and your good to go just make sure you buy the right dvds to burn with

HP makes an external DVD-RW drive that has Lightscribe technology. This is the feature that, if you have the correct discs, allows you to burn the DVD data, then turn over the disc in the drive, and burn a title and images into the label side of the disc. It sure looks better than stick-on labels or writing on it with a Sharpie, IMHO. (I have one as an internal drive in my own HP Pavilion.)\n\nThe retail price for the external version, at least at Wal-Mart, is around $130.00 or so.\n\nI don't know for sure of it's compatibility with a laptop, but since the external version connects by USB, I think it would be fine.

You can get a CD Burner, but I would suggest a DVD burner since it does both CD's and DVD's and it costs about $30 more.

Look over the list here, sort by rating, get one of the better drives with more reviews. \nhttp://www.videohelp.com/dvdwriters\n\nNote: you want a drive that supports "DL" - DVD-R DL, DVD+R DL, for example.  "DL" means dual layer.  Generally, the higher the number preceding it, the better.  For example, a 4X DVD-R DL will write a DVD twice as fast as a 2X DVD-R DL.

First of all make sure it is a USB EXTERNAL DVD-WRITER not a DVD-ROM. Secondly if you friend is running Win XP with SP2 their should be no problem. but you have to have a burning software for example NERO, ROXIO...etc. although for simple data burning you can use a default burning utility provided in windows XP. other Operating System, might have a problem searching for the drivers for your external drive.
