I still put optical drives in my workstations. I like to run linux liveCDs on WORM media for secure web browsing or checking the contents of hard drives I don't trust.
I also still burn discs. Maybe 10-15 a year. They're mainly for liveCDs or moving files to suspect computers. I don't use them...

"PSP Custom Firmware for Dummies"...
I imagine that hardware would be fine for pretty much any game that would run on a Pentium 3. You can do a lot with that.
Arx Fatalis
Jedi Outcast/ Academy
Soldier of Fortune 2

Deus Ex
Morrowind
Giants: Citizen Kabuto
Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver
maybe GTA: Vice City
