There is a system profiler available in the Applications/Utilities folder. If your DVD is properly listed by model number everything should work. As to the software, when you buy a current Mac, you get the current OS and iLife included. When you buy an OS, you only get the OS. iDVD, iPhoto, iMove are all part of iLife and came with your Powerbook.

Couple more q's:

1. Ok i installed it, and it seems to be working. How can I REALLY test? Is there a device manager or anything similar? (i'm an ex win guy).

2. I purchased 10.4 last night (before the drive came in, and installed it). My Tiger has no idvd, or iphoto installed on the g4 machine dock. Any reason as to why? How come my powerbook does? I'm a bit confused...

Thanks!

Just got the aftermarket pioneer drive in, and it came with NO instructions! How do I install this thing in the g4 tower?
