Re: DVD -R/+R in Pismo?

I had heard from a fairly good source that those at Apple chose to use DVD -R as the way to write to disk. I don't know if this has anything to do with the way the system reads the disk or not and I don't have a DVD/R drive to test. Don't quote me on this because it could be wrong. Rad Craig wr

Re: Prince Alfie, & my one pet Mac peeve,

Anybody on the list got an old Panther disc they won't be using again? Perhaps you could let Prince Alfie have it - or for a few bucks & postage? Get him out of his 10.0 misery and let him really enjoy his iBook! (Or whenever you are sure you won't be needing it again) .
