This makes some sense, Shaun. However, didn't the Wallstreet and Lombard PowerBooks require a decoder card that included these chipsets to play DVD's on them? Once OS X (perhaps Jaguar or later) is loaded, they didn't require these cards, correct? Just asking.
NOpe, the ones that needed the cards didn't work with DVD's there was even an attempted class-action suit about it.
However, you SHOULD be able to play them with VLC, although it may not be optimal.
