To all: I have a PB G3 PDQ (266MHz, 3.81GB Drive) and I have a question about the DVD Module available for these earlier powerbooks.
It appears you have to have a DVD PCMCIA card to accompany a DVD drive, otherwise it won't work, UNLESS there is some mysterious DVD Decoder module installed on the PB? Is this true? I know it was an option on this PB, but the module likely is not soldered in unless it was shipped with a DVD Drive. Is there any way to tell if the DVD Decoder module is installed on this PB (before I run out and buy a DVD ROM)? Is there an easy way to use a DVD-ROM with the PDQ? Cheap, aftermarket versions?
