I just pop an empty cd in my cd-burner and gnome asks what I want to do
with it. If I choose to make a data cd, a file manager window appears
and I drag the files I want to burn into that windows. When I have
composed the cd, I press "Write to disc".

If I have downloaded a cd image, I open my "home folder" in the file
manager (nautilus). I navigate to find the iso file, right clicks on it
and selects "write to disc".

I see where this is very hard and almost like configuring X 5 hears
ago. NOT!

If you want a more nero like approach, you can use k3b or any other cd
burning application.
