Yep, it is possible it is plain broke. The guy I bought it from said
it stopped working, well when he dropped a gallon paint can on top of
that corner (with the screen open). Yeah, I pictured a totally

I'd say a critical question is, Why does the DVD work, but the audio CD does
not? I'm assuming the DVD audio is fine, correct? If so, then clearly there

I have a question, I thought someone here might be able to help me. I
have a PowerBook and although I've had it for over a year, I just now
have begun to try to burn a DVD. I have tried the Finder, Toast, and
