The DVD-RAM disks we use are usually from Maxell. Those are type-2 discs
which means you can only use that disc in your G4 w/ DVD-RAM.
Type-1 disks on the other hand (IIRC Panasonic sells them) are able to pop
open so that you can get the DVD out of the DVD-RAM cartridge and put it in
any Mac with a CD drive. Doesn't have to be a DVD-ROM, just a CD-ROM
because Macs have the UDF exension installed nowadays which lets you mount
DVDs.
