[sdiy] EPROM burner recommendations?

I have a site with info on the Oberheim OB-Mx, which includes dumps of  
various versions of the OS EPROMs.

I get about a dozen e-mails a year from people asking me about how to  
upgrade the OS in their OB-Mx.

I'm thinking of getting a EPROM burner for this purpose, and also to  
burn EPROMs in general if I ever have an urge to do so. It would be a  
kind service if I could get people hooked up with the latest version  
of the OS, which overall has less suck.

Any recommendations? The OB-MX EPROMs are 27C256 and 27C1024 (voice  
cards use the former, master board uses the latter).

I'm also worried that the EPROMS in my Synergy might bite the dust at  
any moment.

Something that would work with USB on my Mac would be gravy, but I can  
suffer Windows if required.
