The stock video in them won't decode DVD video without some help. Either you need an ATI PCI video card with the attached decoder from a B&W, or you need a retail ATI Radeon 7000 or 9200 PCI video card. As for compatibility, check the drive compatibility database at xlr8yourmac.com. For DVD burners, Pioneers are always a good choice, as that is what Apple mostly uses as their "SuperDrives". Less frequently they use Sony drives. Alex -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
