Hi Jennifer,

I've used NEC and LiteOn burners.  Both worked well in Linux.

Check out:

http://www.newegg.com

I purchase all of my hardware through them.  The provide excellent service 
and low prices.  Shipping usually takes 2-3 days (from Industry 
California).

I typically buy the cheapest burner I can find, as I don't use them that 
often.  You should be able to pick up a good burner for around $40 from 
newegg.
