That first link kurt posted, about the corning pyroceram. The first picture is NOT actually pyroceram.
It looks like an anchor knockoff, if its a "corning" it is from the years when they started doing the "stoneware" and put out a "new formula" of "pyroceram" but, it cannot hold up to being put on the stovetop still.
Corning pyroceram has a gorgeous white color thats unmistakable (unless of course you get the beige pyroceram)
The pyrex dish featured in that thread will suffer a terrible fate if subjected to uneven heating by flame or a burner.
Pyroceram is a far different beast than pyrex.
