Here....
Go to Newegg and buy this 8x dvd burner, then go to Outpost and buy this firewire enclosure, and then head over to XLR8 your mac to check out the info on LaCie's driver for the aforementioned DVD burner. You still won't be able to use iDVD, but it is $100 cheaper than getting it from LaCie.
Clarification: the dvd burner available from NewEgg is the exact same model that is in LaCie's own $250 model (the NEC ND-2500A), but is on sale for $105. The firewire enclosure isn 't as fancy as LaCie's, but it will work fine. The information on XLR8's site is about LaCie's drivers for that drive, which make it function fine in OS X. You DO get toast 6 with the LaCie, but you might already have it, or another DVD authoring tool, so this can still save you money.
Hey, you were asking for inexpensive! You got it! Heh.
