http://www.dvdutils.com is a great site about stuff like this. Bear in mind that you not only need a region free DVD-rom drive, you also will need to region-free crack the dvd playing software you are using. Just to warn you though, it may be difficult to find a region free drive now as apparently all drives manufactured after January 1st 2000 are meant to be region locked although there will probably still be ways around this ;) AndyG ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
