Glad to hear about your success!!  Here's a few tips to speed you along:

Try out burncd for your CD burner (man burncd).

As for CUPS, which is pretty darn slick, once you have it installed, and turn your browser to localhost:631 for configuration, try using ports/print/xpp.  It is a gui pop-up interface for print-time printer selection.  Whereever a program is configged to use lpr, simply replace it with xpp.

Congrats, and good luck!
