The primary reason that I went for the extra cash to purchase Toast is the
separate saving ability. I don't want everything erased each time that I add
to a disc. I've been writing a book, and I want each stage saved -- if I
wish to look back at an earlier edition. I don't mind the platters scattered
across my desktop; they offer consultation, should I desire it, and also
save other work separately, with easy additions.

I ignorantly purchased a newer edition of Toast when I traded up to a new
iBook because of lousy information from someone. I could just as well have
used the older program in OS9 that I "received" from someone and was still
in the copied material from the old drive. But I'm okay with what I have.
Toast burning is merely drop and burn and then clear the window and close,
period. I'm very satisfied.

Why? I've always found burning from the finder to be utterly simple and 
intuitive...

Re: CD burning question: G4 iBook

[Michael Shaw]

I don't know. Thats why I asked.

I'm more interested in copying CDs than dragging files to a folder to 
burn data onto a CD...

Toast distinguishes nicely between the processes of copying data from a 
folder on your hard drive to a CD and making an identical copy of a CD.

All of my previous experience with burning CDs using Macs has involved 
VST or LaCie USB external burners using Toast.

I just got a G4 iBook which has a CD burner / DVD player installed in 
it.

Can someone point me towards a simple procedure or write-up about how 
to copy CDs using a Mac like this one with an internal CD writer and 
Panzer.
To copy a CD: (note this is from memory, because my Panther system is 
at work I've got Jag at home)

Insert the CD
Start Disk Utility.
Select the CD Volume you want to copy.
Select File > New > Image from device
Let it go do it's thing.
Kick out CD.
Select File > Burn >From Image, select the image and burn,
Burning from the Finder is easier:

Stick in blank CD
Drag content to disk
Drag disk to Trash, which turns into a Radiation symbol.
Done.

How can it be done without spending $90 for Toast 6?  I just bought a 12"
AlBook and MS Office v.X, so software money is rather short right now.
