At least not right now. The downside with a burner as early as a 104 could be -R only, no +R. Early on in the transition from CDs to DVDs, the readers would accept all media, if manufactured, but only -R, if burned. At one point, I had to "dual inventory" my burned media, because my Macs only accepted -Rs, whereas my set-top boxes only accepted +Rs. So, in deciding to go with the 104, just be aware of the limitations of its available formats. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
