The Pismo series (and later) PowerBooks have a hardware DVD decoder
chip, while prior PowerBook models decoded using software.
Hence, if no hardware DVD decoder chip, then system not supported.
Hope that clears things up a bit.

OSX isn't supposed to run on Wallstreets either, but many people do
run it successfully. According to Apples specs, it (Lombard) is
designed to support OSX:

Not Tiger, because of the firewire, but still.
That message seemed like some kind of configuration error, like
perhaps there might be a file that I can edit?
My Lombard came with DVD drive in it, when I bought it used. My
Pismo has a DVD and it works fine, I didn't think there was that much
of a difference between the two other than the firewire.
