I burned a DVD+R for a friend with a 12" ALPB and it wasn't
recognized at all in 10.3.9 or 10.4.1. Neither was a blank. I'm
reburning the DVD+R to a DVD-R that he supplied, we'll see of that
works? Another friend with an older TiPB couldn't recognize any of
four different brands of blank CD-R's I owned, so evidently these
PB's are either broken or very finicky. With desktop drives &
firewire external drives there are often firmware updates to add
support for more or newer media types. Perhaps these PB drives
could be "upgraded" using some non-Apple firmware and then patched
with PatchBurn to reestablish Apple burn support? Big risk and
hassle I'd think, but so is the unreadable CD or DVD.
What version of the aluminum PB? I thought the Apple specs said the
latest (1.5GHz) models would do both "plus R" and "minus R" ( with
the superdrive of course).

My ALPB is not quite 1 1/2 years ol and has a 1.33 Power G4 processor.
Greetings, Andre.
