>Here's a strange Slot Loading DVD-R for the Lombard >and Pismo PowerBook. I can give a lil' testimonial on these... I don't know about the MCE version, but I recently acquired a slot-loading DVD-R DVD-RW DVD-RAM CDRW DVD drive off EBay : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=51039&item=5112263412 To date, all I have done with it is read CDs and DVD using a 400mhz lombard, but it did that just fine. It's bootable, too. You have to install the drive into the Pismo/Lombard cd-dvd drive carrier yourself, but it is pretty simple. The read/write ratings: 2x DVD-RAM Write 2x DVD-R Write 1x DVD-RW Rewrite 16x CD-R Write 8x CD-RW Rewrite 8x DVD Read 24x CD Read are the same as the MCE version. And the one on Ebay was at a fraction of the cost of the one MCE has. Craig W. Atlanta, GA Power corrupts. Absolute power's a blast. �- John Fund -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
