Combo drives will read DVDs. Just pop it in.

I know. But Clamshell does not support dvd reading / playing. The only
one that does is the ibook SE 466mhz.

Do you have a clamshell SE (graphite)? Mine is a Blueberry 300mhz,
which will not play DVD's.

On Wednesday,
You should be able to read DVDs, but you won't be able to play them. A
300MHz G3 is simply not fast enough to decode the DVD video. Older
PBG3s either had decoder circuitry on the logic board, or supported DVD
decoder PC cards. The iBook has neither capability, so there's nothing
you can do.

Yes, but I was responding to Clamshell does not support dvd reading and
it should be some do not. It depends if the correct drive is installed. If
he has a DVD drive, then he should be able to put in a DVD and then
depending if auto play is on or not, watch the DVD or launch the DVD player
and
