We have been burning CDs with Windows using various softwares, one of 
which is Burn4Free, which since it is freeware might support older 
computers.  It is about a 1MB download from www.burn4free.com.  

 A friend also gave us NTI-CD by Newtech Infosystems, for Windows 95X on a
486/66 with 8M RAM (16M recommended) or for 16-bit Windows 3.1 with a
'supported SCSI CD-Recorder'.  Win31 can be made to fit into 8M (or less)
of hard disk in a DOS directory.  You need a fast hard drisk - less than
19 msec access time (probably anything 250MB or more will be fast enough).

 Some day we will attempt to burn CDs with linux.  After I learn to print.

Are there DOS CD-burner programs?
